Owners ask Vincent to quit THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ROSEMONT, III. - Baseball owners overwhelmingly asked Fay Vincent to resign Thursday, a move the commissioner imme diately rejected. By an 18-9-1 vote, owners adopted a resolution stating they had no confidence in Vin cent, who was elected to a 4 1/2- year term on Sept. 13,1989. "We did not discuss what we're going to do if he's not go ing to resign," said Chicago White Sox owner Jerry Reins- dorf, leading Vincent opponent. Vincent, who on Aug. 20 sent the owners a letter saying he would never quit, affirmed his decision after the session. He did not attend the meeting, re maining in New York because he said its purpose was unlaw ful under the Major League Agreement, which governs baseball. It says the commission er's term can't be shortened and his power can't be diminished. "I believe strongly that a baseball commissioner should serve a full term as contemplat ed by the Major League Agree ment," said Vincent, wnose terms runs through March 31, 1994. "Only then can difficult decisions be made impartially and without fear of political repercussions." The four-hour special meet ing, held at a hotel near Chica go's O'Hare International Air port, by all accounts unfolded calmly. New York Yankees man aging general partner Joseph Molloy said Vincent's treatment of Yankees owner George Stein- brenner and pitcher Steve Howe were among the issues dis cussed. The resolution also made references to labor and television negotiations and fran chise stability. "The sooner he resigns, the better," Philadelphia Phillies owner Bill Giles said. The resolution, drafted by lawyers for the American and National leagues, was intro duced by Douglas Danforthof the Pittsburgh Pirates. The vote was taken by secret ballot, but several owners and officials identified the Baltimore Orioles, Boston Red Sox, Florida Marlins, Houston Astros, Montreal Ex pos, New York Mets, Oakland Athletics and Texas Rangers as eight teams that spoke againstit Owners said the vote of the Kansas City Royals was unclear after the remarks by owner Ew ing Kauffman, and that Mikell- itch, who bought the Detroit Tigers last week, did not speak. Most of the owners contacted said they believed the Royals were the ninth team supporting Vincent hut were not sure. Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott left the meeting early, and her vote was counted as an abstention. The undecidedsasof last week — Colorado, Detroit, San Diego and Seattle - all joined the anti-Vincent group as did Atlanta, which previously said it would support the com missioner. "The ball is in his court. If it comes back to us, then we'll run with it," said Jackie Autry of the California Angels. "I don't know what this means. The only thing for certain is that 18 peo ple want to get rid of the com missioner." Toronto Blue Jays president Paul Beeston, elected to preside over the meeting in Vincent's absence, read the resolution dur ing a news conference following the session.
