Opening Day Umpire Chaos Nears Baseball Season
The season opens with uncertainty as Paul Pryor, a dissident umpire, may call the opener in Cincinnati for the Reds against the Giants. About 50 major league umpires declined to sign contracts, seeking higher pay, while Ted Hendry remains the lone regular under AL contract and could work Seattle’s opener. AL President Lee MacPhail says local umpires will fill crews, with eight of twelve minor league referees turning down three-year major league offers.
