1971 Series Hero Struggles in Spring Pitching Woes
Steve Blass, once 1971 World Series hero, endured a rough spring outing as the Pirates fell 10-4 to the White Sox in an exhibition doubleheader, raising doubts about his return to form. Bob Moose impressed with five innings of two-hit ball in the opener, while Blass faced control problems and left after a four-run fourth. The Pirates also dropped several other spring games with Dodgers edging Red Sox 13-12 in a 36-hit thriller and Reds beating Cardinals 6-4 with Al Hrabosky allowing three runs in relief.
