Torre Ends Holdout as Cards Sign Torre and Strike Looms
Hall of Fame level news on major league labor talks centers on Joe Torre signing a two year deal with the St. Louis Cardinals ending his spring holdout and a looming players strike after the Chicago White Sox authorized action. The gap over pension increases persists with owners trimming offers to 250000. Milestone figures include Torre's 1972 130000 and 1973 150000 salaries. Meanwhile spring games saw Pittsburgh beat New York Mets 5-4 Chicago Cubs over Cleveland 5-3 Oakland 5-1 to San Francisco and Boston edging New York Yankees 2-1 Minnesota routing Chicago White Sox 10-1.
