Sanguillen Seeks Playing Time With Pirates and A's

Manny Sanguillen says he would rather play than sit the bench and has learned to adapt with Pittsburgh. He notes he previously led Oakland in games, at bats, and hits while filling multiple roles and would still like to return to the A’s in the future. He remains a key NL figure from the 1971 Pirates World Series team and highlights camaraderie with Latin teammates. In New Jersey, Giants sign Terry Jackson and Thomas Fencik as defensive backs. Kenneth L. Smith Jr. cards his first hole in one at Sunset CC No. 5 with witnesses Mark and Sarah Davis.
