He was only owner for one of those titles. The first one the team was owned by Wayne Huizenga, who owned the Dolphins. He sold the team to John Henry (who now owns the Red Sox)... who sold the team to Loria, allowing Loria to dump the Expos. Even then, the foundation of that 2nd team had already been built when Loria bought it.
Granted maybe I'm just biased against Loria. He wrecked baseball in Montreal, and is now doing it in Florida. I can't think of too many owners that have done this to two pro franchises.
