NINE-INNING NINTENDO
After five months of debate, major league baseball owners
gave a thumbs-up to the $125 million sale of the Seattle Mariners
to an investment group headed by Hiroshi Yamauchi, the president
of Nintendo in Japan. The owners waved the deal through because
Yamauchi agreed to limited decision-making power. Said American
League president Bobby Brown: "The offshore interest has
investment but not much to say about how the franchise is
operated."
