Selig also promised not to unilaterally implement new terms and conditions of employment for players through the end of the World Series, which is of little significance because players already have signed their 2002 contracts.
Baseball commissioner Bud Selig said for months that a lockout was not "on my radar screen," but had refused to rule one out.
Baseball owners vow not to enact new work rules, form lockout
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Baseball owners pledged yesterday not to lock out players through the 2002 World Series.
The players' association is fearful owners will attempt to implement changes in work rules immediately after the World Series, which would affect contracts signed for the 2003 season and beyond.
"Our fans deserve to know that the 2002 season will be played to completion without interruption and they deserve to know that now before we begin the new season," Selig said in a statement. "Therefore, on behalf of the clubs, I pledge that we will not take any economic action either in the form of a lockout or unilateral implementation against the players' association throughout the course of the season and post-season.
These are women who have plenty of experience scaling mountains around the world, but they are not professional climbers. They have a different agenda.
"The sanctity of the season, however, is only partially within my control. Since we do not have a new collective bargaining agree-
becoming the first all-female team to scale Everest would be a bonus but it's not the goal.
ment, the players have the right to strike at anytime. I sincerely hope that they share my strong feeling about the importance of playing the entire season."
The labor contract between players and owners expired on Nov.7 and negotiations for a new agreement have not progressed toward a new deal.
Two heart operations and a case of mercury poisoning can't keep Alison Levine down. Kids at home, jobs, the full gamut of middle-aged life — no problem for Lynn Prebble, Jody Thompson and Kim Clark.
For the 58-year-old Cross, who would be the oldest woman to reach the top of Everest if all goes well, the triumph is simply in trying, in conquering fears if not mountains, and inspiring others not to let age or disease stand in the way of their dreams.
In 1994, players were fearful owners would attempt to implement new work rules, and they struck on Aug. 12, baseball's eighth work stoppage since 1972. The walkout lasted 232 days and wiped out the World Series for the first time since 1903.
"You can step out of your comfort zone and push yourself to go for the things you want, and you don't have to be deterred by war or terrorism or economic crisis or anything like that," says Levine, who came up with the idea for the all-female expedition and got funding from Ford.
Owners did implement new work rules, which included a salary cap, on Dec. 23, 1994. However, the players' association filed an unfair labor practice charge and on March 31, 1995, a federal judge ordered owners to restore the old work rules, which cause players to end their strike.
Negotiations resumed and the sides signed a new contract on March 14, 1997.
"We want to show that women do have a place in mountaineering and that it isn't all about getting to the top. It's about going out there and working as a team. It's about the power of women, about perseverance, about the American spirit and how we are not willing to give up our dreams just because there's a lot of chaos in the world."
Talks, which recessed March 13, are to resume next week but progress doesn't appear likely in the near future.
The most unlikely band ever to try to scale the world's tallest mountain leaves today on a journey with a message for everyone.
Cross might look wispy at 5-foot-2 and 115 pounds, but she's been climbing up and down slopes since she was a little girl with her grandmother in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. While planning climbs in Nepal five years ago, she found out she had breast cancer.
The doctor won, and after radiation and a lumpectomy the disease has not come back.
Owners say baseball is losing hundreds of millions of dollars annually and has a competitive balance problem. They have proposed a vast increase in revenue sharing and a 50 percent luxury tax on the portions of payrolls above $98 million.
["He said] "Wrong, you're not going to Nepal," she said
"Wait a minute, you don't understand, I don't have time for this, I'm going to Nepal," Cross said she told her doctor.
Determined women to climb up Everest
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — On her milestone fifth anniversary of surviving breast cancer, backpacking granny Midge Cross is taking on another small challenge: climbing Mount Everest.
Planting a flag on the peak of the 29,035-foot mountain, which has claimed the lives of 174 climbers since 1922, and
"So five years later, almost to the day, I have an opportunity to go and it's just incredible," she said. "Now, as luck would have it, my younger sister has breast cancer and she's going through chemotherapy. So in a way, this is a climb for her, too."
