McLane dead, stepson takes over 'Stros

Houston, TX -

With news of the passing of owner Drayton McLane Jr., the team announced that Eduardo McLane Jr. will take control of the team. Eduardo is the stepson of Drayton and his estranged wife. It was well known that McLane was ill for sometime now but currently, a family member is under investigation involving the death. At just 29 years-old, Eduardo becomes the youngest owner in the SBL. As far as whereabouts of Eduardo Sr., upon hearing of the news of his son taking over the team, he sent only a post card from Columbia, congradulating his son, and notifying him that as soon as the Cartel Summer Beach Bash was over, he would come join him in Houston to help get things rolling. Should be plenty of money flowing into the team finances now. Public funeral services will be held for Drayton sometime during the next homestand out in centerfield during the 7th inning stretch.
