Boddicker Temporarily Fills Orioles' Needs
Orioles pitcher Mike Boddicker threw his second straight complete game in a 7-0 exhibition win over the Yankees as Baltimore seeks improvement after last year’s shaky staff. Cal Ripken and John Shelby had three hits each. Boddicker noted his fastball and curve, while Niekro remained unsigned. Other notes: White Sox released Rudy Law, Cubs cut Gary Woods, and trades sent Tom Nieto to Montreal for Fred Manrique and Wayne Krenchicki to the Expos.

Coach Crum admitted the calculated risk to let others beat Dawkins, while Amaker and Krzyzewski praised the defensive shift that sidelined Duke’s star and opened chances for teammates.
