The Stern Legacy. In the wake of baseball's darkest hourâthe infamous Black Sox scandal of 1919âKenesaw Mountain Landis (1866-1944) was appointed baseball's first commissioner in 1920. Tasked with restoring public trust and integrity to Americaâs pastime, Landis quickly became known for his hardline approach and unwavering commitment to rooting out corruption. His resolute stance helped set the foundation for modern baseballâs governance.
One particular photographâsigned by the Commissioner himselfâremains a coveted piece of baseball history. This image captures Landis in his signature stern pose, a fitting reflection of the man who reshaped the game.
