Owners meet with Vincent’s objections
NEW YORK (AP)—The league presidents
ignored the objection of Fay Vincent and called
a special major league meeting Sept. 3 to
discuss the commissioner’s status.
It was not clear if a group of dissident
owners would attempt to force Vincent out of
office during the session, which will be held at
Roscmont, III. Vincent’s term runs through
March 31,1994, and the commissioner and his
supporters say he cannot be fired. However,
some owners disagree with that interpretation
of the Major League Agreement.
The Major League Agreement has a provi
sion that allows the league presidents to call a
joint session if a commissioner refuses to act on
their request within five days. NL President
Bill White personally delivered the formal call
for the meeting to Vincent before a brief tele
phone conference call among owners to ap
prove the sale of the Detroit Tigers.
Baseball officials said Vincent probably
will not attend the session because he believes
it will be unlawful. In his absence, the owners
would elect a presiding officer, and one owner
said he expected the league presidents would
run the session.
