Absence of Koufax and Drysdale hurts Dodgers crowd growth
Hal Rock reports that Walter OMalley balks at salary demands from Sandy Koufax and Ben Drysdale. With the star pitchers out, NL clubs may help fill gaps as Astros draw about 41 000 for two games in the Astrodome, about 29000 short of Koufax Drysdale attraction. Dodgers sweep Astros 4 1 to 2 6 exhibition record. Other scores include Yankees over Mets 4 2 and Cincinnati over Boston 6 8 in 13 innings. Bill Giles estimates Koufax Drysdale absence could cost Houston about 200000. First Astroturf workout yields mixed reactions from Hatton Shirley.
