Feuding Yankees Boss and Coach Face Off in Public
New York Yankees manager Dallas Green vows to stand up to owner George Steinbrenner amid a war of words after Steinbrenner criticized Green and his staff through the press. Green defended his coaching staff and questioned the owner’s right to second guess from afar. In other notes, Seattle manager Jim Lefebvre recalls Batman ties, Toronto’s Lee Mazzilli homered in his first game with the Blue Jays, and Boston ace Roger Clemens is healing from an elbow muscle tear with a likely Sunday start.
