Holdouts Thin for Cardinals as Torre Tops Request
The St. Louis Cardinals pressed a baseball law to compel two holdouts to report by March 10 while remaining two players, Bob Burda and Joe Torre, could not be reached. Torre seeks 150000 dollars, while owner Gussie Busch is reluctant. Other holdouts Carl Morton and Merv Rettenmund agreed to terms with Expos and Orioles respectively. Exhibitions saw Pirates beat Red Sox 13 1, Mets top Tigers 9 3, Yankees over Rangers 14 9, and Twins defeat White Sox 9 4 with key hits from Garrett, Martinez, and Foli. Torre’s status and Burda's were unresolved.
