No-show Carty fined by Indians in spring training
Cleveland manager Phil Seghi fined Rico Carty $100 for not reporting to spring training in Tucson. Carty remained in the Dominican Republic as his agent Alan Hendricks questioned the legality and urged that Carty has no obligation without a 1977 contract. Seghi renewed Orlando Gonzalez and Stan Perzanowski contracts and Boog Powell signed a one year deal.
