Pascual Presses for Ten Thousand Dollar Raise
Camilo Pascual, the Cuban refugee star pitcher for the Miami club, threatens to quit for the summer unless the Minnesota Twins approve a ten thousand dollar salary increase. He has twice offered a forty thousand dollar contract, up two thousand from last year when he won twenty one of thirty decisions and led the league with two hundred two strikeouts. He argues his peak form and past bets justify the raise despite Griffith’s remark that the money should reflect thirty wins.
