Commissioner urged to end weeklong baseball strike
In New York, two team owners pressed Commissioner Bowie Kuhn to intervene and end the seven day strike. Bob Short of the Rangers, supported by Calvin Griffith of the Twins, urged a firm stance, while Miller and Feeney led fruitless talks over pensions and a possible binding arbitration.
