Spahn to Join Giants in Pennant Drive
Warren Spahn, 44, former star lefty, agreed to terms with the San Francisco Giants and will report Wednesday. The Mets released him last week after a poor run, and Giants manager Herman Franks noted Spahn could be used as a starter or reliever as the club pursues the NL pennant. Spahn has 360 career wins, a record for left-handers, and previously won the Cy Young in 1957.
