if his contract isn’t settled.
HOUSTON (AP) — Houston As
tros relief pitcher Charlie Kerfeld
said Thursday that Astros General
Manager Dick Wagner is more inter
ested in pinching pennies than win
ning a World Series and that he may
walk out of camp.
“There’s a stick about 6 feet long,
and so far I’m getting one foot of it,”
Kerfeld said in an interview with
KIKK-Radio. “He (Wagner) doesn’t
seem to want to budge for me or
Glenn (Davis) or any player with less
than three years in the big leagues.”
Wagner was attending a meeting
in Dallas and unavailable for com
ment.
Davis, runnerup as the National
League’s Most Valuable Player last
season, currently is a holdout in his
contract squabble with Wagner.
Davis and Kerfeld, key figures in
Houston’s NL Western Division title
last season, have less than three
years of major league services and
are ineligible for salary arbitration.
“Obviously, he’s (Wagner) wor
ried more about pinching pennies
than he is about winning the World
Series,” Kerfeld said.
Kerfeld, in his second season in
the major leagues, finished with an
“So far, it’s no fun going to the
ball park and worrying about my
contract instead of playing baseball,”
Kerfeld said.
Kerfeld said he is being offered
barely $100,000 annually and he re
portedly is seeking $125,000.
Davis, who hit 30 home runs and
drove in 101 runs, is seeking
$240,000 from the Astros and the
club has offered $170,000.
Commissioner says
owners not trying
to end free agency
DALLAS (AP) — Baseball com
missioner Peter Ueberroth said
Thursday he has seen no evidence
that major league club owners are
conspiring to break up the player
free agency system.
Ueberroth said he “made inquir
ies” during a day-long meeting of
the 26 teams’ owners or their rep
resentatives as to whether teams are
still pursuing free agents.
“I wanted to know if there were
negotiations ongoing,” Ueberroth
said. “There seems to be, and I hope
they are fruitful.”
Players, their agents and the play
ers’ union have complained that the-
owners’ failure to sign some of the
big-name stars indicates collusion to
drive salaries down.
“That’s a bunch of garbage,”
Texas Rangers owner Eddie Chiles
told reporters. “But the union has to
fuss about something.”
He said it is not the owners’ fault
that some players have not signed
contracts.
“If they’re good players, we’ll take
them,” Chiles said. “They’re proba
bly pricing themselves out of the
market.”
Most of the owners left quickly af
ter the regularly scheduled meeting
to catch flights. They walked briskly
past reporters and declined to com
ment.
Ueberroth conducted a news con
ference, however, and said he be
lieves the market place should deter
mine how much a player is paid.
“Everyone seems to forget I came
out against a salary cap in 1985,” Ue
berroth said. “I want the market
place to make the decision. The
owners may not like that and the
union may not like that.”
Ueberroth said he is concerned
about the financial shape of major
league baseball, but is determined to
hold the average price of tickets to
between $6 and $7.
“The financial picture is a little
better, but only because revenues
are up,” he said. “People expect the
television payments to come down,
and if it continues, the institution of
major league baseball could be in
trouble.”
Ueberroth said it is possible the
contract between major league base
ball and ABC and NBC will be rene
gotiated before it expires in 1989.
He said nine teams in 1985 either
broke even or made money.

TCU's Lott and Richard lose
first home game as Frogs
FORT WORTH (AP) — Carl Lott
and Larry Richard didn’t know how
to act — a game had ended at Dan-
iel-Meyer Coliseum on the Texas
Christian University campus and
they were on the losing end of the
score.
Lott and Richard, both junior col
lege transfers, came to TCU at the
start of the 1986 season.
The Horned Frogs proceeded to
win 24 consecutive home games un
til the upstart Houston Cougars
knocked off the 15th-ranked South
west Conference champions 84-65
on Wednesday night.
“It was kind of a weird feeling los
ing in Daniel-Meyer,” Richard said.
“It was hard to believe.”
Lott agreed. “It’s just not some
thing you ever thought was going to
happen.”
With the SWC Post-Season Bas
ketball Classic only a week away, the
Cougars served notice that the regu
lar season champions can be con
quered.
“I think this proves it will be any
body’s tournament to win in Dallas,”
TCU Coach Jim Killingsworth said.
“Maybe we better wake up.”
TCU dropped to 22-5 overall and
13-2 in the SWC, while Houston im
proved to 17-9 and 9-6.
“We’ll have to regroup for the
tournament now,” Killingsworth
said. “We just got too far behind
Houston and then we had to do too
much gambling on defense. That (a
full-court press) pays off about once
every 85 times you try it.”
“I hate to see our streak go,” Kill
ingsworth said “but we ran into a hot
team that did everything well. The
Cougars were just unconscious.”
Greg Anderson scored 27 points
and grabbed 12 rebounds as the
Cougars shot 57 per cent from the
field.
TCU hadn’t lost in Daniel-Meyer
Coliseum since the last game of
1985.
