Pirates face early testing as Sanguillen shifts to right field
Manny Sanguillen, moved from catcher to right field to replace the late Roberto Clemente, misplayed a fly ball and made a fielding error in an 8-3 exhibition loss to the Detroit Tigers. Manager Bill Virdon says Clemente is irreplaceable but may keep Sanguillen in right if Milt May proves capable. The Tigers added homers by Jim Northrup and Dick Sharon as part of a 16 hit attack. In the other exhibition, Frank Tepedino led the Yankees past the Twins 11-4 with four hits and three doubles. Ron Swoboda drove in three for New York.
