On the recordFebruary 8, 1995
I would like to step to the plate and take a few swings at the baseball strike. The Natural tendency for all baseball fans is, I think, to urge Congress to involve itself in this labor dispute which impacts all of us beyond the Major Leagues. Unfortunately, I am not inclined to believe it is our place to send these players back to their Field of Dreams. As it stands now, if something is not done, we may have a 1995 Rookie of the Year from the Little Big League. I would strongly urge that both sides stop slinging the Bull Durham that we have endured for the past several months, and send Eight Men Out to negotiate a workable agreement, or The Pride of the Yankees will be playing for the Bad News Bears this summer.
