Chastened Billy Martin faces press amid Yankee reprieve
DETROIT UP I P I Billy Martin appeared somber yet relieved after a press conference following Yankees manager’s second reprieve in six weeks. Manager Paul assured no firing and noted changes in the organization, while Detroit fans greeted Martin’s lineup card with a standing ovation after Mark Fidrych’s 2-1 Tigers win. Calvin Griffith of the Twins laughed at the Boston incident, recalling Martin’s past clashes with players and his lingering habit of associating with them.
