to baseball in general for my behavior inSt. Petersburg, Fla.,
on the night of May 3.

training rules and I have accepted it without recourse.".

and Leon Roberts followed with
singles for the Tigers' run.
John Knox then hit a shal-
low fly on which left fielder
Jim Wohlford missed a diving

ground out.
