Ontiveros Joins Cubs Promises Strong Hitters Park Boost
Left fielder and infield utility player Steve Ontiveros, just traded from the Giants with Bobby Murcer for Bill Madlock, says Wrigley Field’s power-friendly environment and a fresh opportunity could rekindle his hitting. He posted a .357 PCL season in 1973 but slumped to .179 in 1974. He expects regular playing time at third base and believes he can regain his stroke if trusted.
