Durocher Fines Two Cubs For Poor Playing
Cubs manager Leo Durocher fined Byron Browne and Joey Amalfitano 100 dollars each for poor play in Cincinnati. Browne was accused of toofing while chasing a Richie Allen drive that became an inside the park homer. Amalfitano was fined for failing to score from third on a bouncer to Darold Knowles as Santo hit the ball. The fines may be repaid with improved play. Browne must have taken this seriously.
