Umpires Strike Starts in Toronto Blue Jays vs Twins
Four regular American League umpires refused to work the Toronto Blue Jays game with the Minnesota Twins signaling the second major league umpire strike. The game at Exhibition Stadium was handled by two amateur umpires and two coaches as contingency plans were urged by leagues. Bob Engel led the umpires association and noted potential stoppage while talks with league presidents failed to advance. Umpires seek three one week vacations annually, job security after three years, higher pay with cost-of-living adjustments, and better disability benefits.
