And he has worked in his capacity as league president to try to further that cause.

He also stated that "I should have been given the right to give my side of the matter to the league president."

White's efforts as league president have not been so evident.

"The game always meant a lot to the league presidents."

New schools are placed by the league president after a few meets.

White's election would give baseball two former players as league presidents for the first time.

For the first time, the league presidents have not been involved in the negotiations.
