A non-scientific magazine survey released Tuesday showed overwhelming support for the owners if baseball players go on strike again this summer.

Two-thirds of the 2,000 Sports magazine readers who filled out a questionnaire in the July issue said their sympathies are with the owners if the players walk out.
