5.26.1995

     Within the next month, MLB is expected to announce Coors
Field as its site for the '98 All-Star Game (USA TODAY,
5/26)....Visions USA has been "drafted" by the Negro Leagues
Baseball Museum in Kansas City, MO, to produce a three-day
celebration in October honoring the 75th anniversary of the
leagues' founding (ADWEEK, 5/22)....At least half of MLB owners
"are in favor of an in-house, revenue-sharing plan that does not
include concessions from the union," according to Hal Bodley in
this morning's USA TODAY.  This will be discussed when owners
meet June 5-8 to "map strategy" for talk on a new CBA (USA TODAY,
5/26).
