Chicken brings bad luck to Schulze and Indians rotation
Cleveland Indians pitcher Don Schulze has been demoted to long relief after a string of poor starts and a high profile incident with The Chicken in 1982. Manager Pat Corrales cited lack of command in fourth and fifth innings and noted Schulze’s ongoing elbow concerns with Waddell’s rehab and rotation changes looming. Oelkers and Yett could join the rotation as Schulze’s spot remains tenuous.

Bias autopsy reveals cocaine use before Len Bias death
Maryland basketball star Len Bias probably used cocaine in the past and again within an hour or two before the fatal dose, according to State Medical Examiner Dr. John Smialek. Tests showed microscopic heart muscle damage typical of cocaine-induced effects, while viral infection was deemed unlikely. Further studies probe rhythm abnormalities related to Bias’ death.
