Union seeks reduce Otis Nixon suspension
The Major League Baseball Players Association plans a grievance to shorten Otis Nixon suspension from days to time served after a cocaine test. Nixon has served 42 days and faces missing the NL playoffs and World Series if unresolved. An arbitrator George Nicolau would hear the case if needed. Mack Lobell ends racing career and will stand at stud in Sweden after a $7 million purchase in 1988.

Anglers lukewarm to extended striped bass season
The five year ban on striped bass ended with a quota system dividing the catch among commercial, recreational, and charter boat anglers. Last year Maryland allocated 750000 pounds total with 42.5 percent to commercial and 42.5 percent to recreational anglers and 15 percent to charter boats. The rod and reel season opened October 5 and closed early after anglers hit their quotas, prompting disputes over creel limits and season lengths.
