Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: The new skipper: Baseball has been a part of Bobby Mattick's life for 60 years but he'll face his biggest challenge next season when he manages Toronto Blue Jays. The 63-year-old Mattick has had only one other managing job -- with Ogden, Utah in the Pioneer League in 1948 -- but he has a first-class reputation for his work as a scout and director of player personnel for 10 different major league teams.
