Tiger fans expressed no surprise
at the retention of O'Neill for his
third term as m. lager. Coming as
II did only a day after the heated
pennant race closed, the signing
served as n tribute for his work In
bringing the club up from NTH

second. Rumors that the stocky

culated last year until December,
when he was given another con.
