Several Players Switch Uniforms Before Deadline
Relief pitcher Claude Raymond can switch to his travel uniform tonight after being traded by the Houston Astros to the Atlanta Braves for pitcher Wade Blasingame just before the trading deadline. The Braves open a three game series in Houston tonight, with Raymond likely to debut against former teammates. Other moves include Jim King leaving Washington Senators for the Chicago White Sox, who sent outfielder Fd Stroud in return. California Angels acquired outfielder Woody Held from Baltimore and outfielder Roger Repoz from Kansas City for pitcher Jack Sanford and an unnamed Triple A player. Raymond, 30, from St. Jean Quebec, had four losses this season and went 7-5 with the Astros in 1966. Blasingame, 23, is 1-2 this year after a 3-7 season with a 5.29 ERA last year.
