Detroit Tigers Manager Billy Martin Walks Out in Dispute
Billy Martin left a meeting with General Manager Jim Campbell and Willie Horton after a heated exchange over Horton's unauthorized exit from a game. Campbell raised the temperamental outfielder’s fine, and Martin walked out, with coach Dick Tracewski set to handle the next exhibition. Martin, entering his third Tigers season, had just signed a two year deal worth 67 500 this year and 72 000 next year. The Tigers beat the Phillies 9 to 5 in the same day’s action.
