A federal judge upheld the authority of Fay Vincent for the second time in two weeks, forcing a top New York Yankee official to appear at a disciplinary hearing before the baseball commissioner today.
After a two-hour hearing in Manhattan, U.S. District Judge Leonard B. Sand rejected a request by Yankee Executive Vice President Leonard Kleinman for a temporary restraining order.
Kleinman wanted to stop Vincent’s hearing on his relationship with gambler Howard Spira and his role in a $40,000 payment made by the Yankees and George Steinbrenner to Spira last January.
