Not Well With Senators Facing Ownership Tensions
Washington Senator Treasurer A. Gabriel Murphy voiced ideas to improve the American League team amid a disappointing season in which the club sits near the basement. Murphy, owning a large stock block, denied personal conflict with President Calvin Griffith but urged discussion on control and auditing while noting the Griffith family still holds majority ownership. Attendance woes at Griffith Stadium compound the club’s struggles, with 241,935 fans this season versus 425,238 last year.
