Baseball upheaval as A’s fire Gordon for Bauer
Kansas City owner Charles Finley ordered General Manager Frank Lane to fire Joe Gordon as field manager. Hank Bauer replaces him starting with the Monday game against the Yankees. Finley cited Lane and Gordon’s friction and aimed to lift heat on Lane while seeking a pennant. Bauer, a former Yankee, expects a smooth transition with no immediate lineup changes and will manage when not playing.
