As recently as it was found that Crosby — who helped pioneer and popularize making recordings of film — had one of the only recordings of game seven of the World Series. He purchased stock in the team in the late 40s, and maintained partial ownership into the s. He served as the vice president and owned about 15 percent of the team. His ownership in Tigers stock is barely a footnote, but on January 10, , the then-commissioner of baseball, Ford Frick, determined that Crosby was allowed to keep his shares in the Detroit Tigers in spite of being a part-owner of the Pirates.

Rather than promote Greenberg to the general manager role as Greenberg had requested, Briggs sold his contract to Pittsburgh, and its new part owner: Bing Crosby.
