The 41-year-old Robinson, signed by the Angels as a bat- ting coach this week, says he won't press the issue of being activated. But he would play if that was what the club wanted. Robinson, 14 l4ome runs shy of 600 and 57 hits short of 3,000, was a designated hitter for two years as player-manager with the Cleveland Indians. He had 12 homers and 35 RBI'sduring that Ieriod, but had to undergo surgery for an injured shoulder during the winter of 1975. Cleveland decided it wanted him to end his playing career this season, then he was fired as manager. "I took some batting practice while I was still with Cleveland this year," Robinson said, "and I was amazed at how well I hit the ball. I think it would take only about a week . . . for me to determine if I could help the club." Bostock blasts Twins ANAHEIM - Minnesota outfielder Lyman Bostock, outspoken all season about his insistence to play out his option with the Twins, called the team's fans "front-runners", and blasted the club's hierarchy for not finding his wife a job during last season. He also-criticized Manager Gene Mauch's decision to use him in left field and platoon him against certain lefthanded pitchers. Bostock said he is a proven hitter and that center field is his natural position. "They're playing with my mind," said Bostock in a news paper report Tuesday. "Cm tired of playing for a second-class organization," said Bostock. "The money is no longer an object. Happiness is what I'm looking for. "It goes beyond even the club to the fans themselves. They're ignorant about baseball. They know nothing about the sub- tleties. It's really the organization's fault for not educating them." He said the players were forced to stand on the team bus so front office personnel could sit and he was upset his wife wasn't found a job until this year by the team. The 26-year-old Twins outfielder has also publicly ex- pressed his desire to play on the West Coast next year in many interviews with broadcasters and writers from Califor- nia and Seattle. His teammates were rreportedly infuriated by Bostock's latest charges. Twins' owner Calvin Griffith said in Minneapolis he was dis- couraged by Bostock's charges and particularly concerned by the vt'iinlotoo tha fmon Beat ya!
