Baseball's leading power couple is headed for a divorce.
Frank McCourt, the Los Angeles Dodgers' owner, and his wife, Jamie, the team's CEO, are in the middle of divorce proceedings, according to multiple major-league sources.
"Frank McCourt and Jamie McCourt confirm that they are separated," the McCourts said in a statement when asked for comment by FOXSports.com.
"This is a personal matter and they request that their privacy be respected. They will be making no public statements."
The divorce will not be amicable, one source said.
"They've already 'lawyered' up," the source said. "They're trashing each other terribly. It's going to be World War III."
Earlier this year, a divorce between San Diego Padres owner John Moores and his wife, Becky, helped prompt the sale of that club.
