CBS Buys Yankees in Major League Baseball Deal
CBS formally announced purchase of the New York Yankees for 11.2 million for 80 percent with Dan Topping and Del Webb retaining 10 percent each. The move could bring pay television to New York and prompts Senate antitrust scrutiny. Charles Finley and Arthur Allyn criticized the sale as Boston Cronin indicated the Yankees would operate as a separate entity within CBS.
