Ueberroth vows Pirates stay put amid sale talks
Baseball Commissioner Peter Ueberroth said he would veto any move of the financially troubled Pittsburgh Pirates to another city and urged other communities not to raid teams. He met with Pittsburgh officials and urged local investors to buy the franchise, noting the team lost about six million dollars last season and drew the worst attendance in the NL. He cautioned that legal actions over the stadium lease were counterproductive and stressed fan support and local ownership as keys to keeping the Pirates in Pittsburgh.

Johnson buys out Outlaws to join Chargers
Wide receiver Trumaine Johnson reportedly agreed to purchase the remainder of his USFL contract with the Arizona Outlaws to sign with the NFL's San Diego Chargers. The Phoenix Gazette said Johnson would pay close to 1 million dollars, with funds partly from his signing bonus, to become a free agent after walking out of camp January 23 over a contract dispute. The Grambling alum, 6 feet 3, 193 pounds, played for the Chicago Blitz in 1983 and the Arizona Wranglers in 1984.
