Commissioner Happy Chandler fines the Pirates
$2,000 for violating the NL bonus rule. Pittsburgh
signed M. L. Lynch as a scout while offering his son
Danny a $6,000-a-year contract. Chandler interprets
this as an attempt to influence the young second
baseman's decision. Danny Lynch is declared a free
agent and signs with the Cubs.
