Schott Cedes Daily Control of Reds Till ’99
Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott, under pressure by Major League Baseball to step aside after controversial remarks about Adolf Hitler, working women and Asians, agreed Wednesday to give up day-to-day control of the team through the 1998 season.
Under terms of the deal, Schott, 67, will retain her partnership shares as controlling owner of the team.
Acting Commissioner Bud Selig said she will not be involved in day-to-day decisions and will not speak for the team.
