Angels After Billy Martin

MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL (AP) - Billy Martin, Minnesota Twins coach who had hoped to be considered for the job of manager of the Oakland-bound Athletics, disclosed Friday the California Angels want to hire him.

"Bill Rigney (Angel Manager) called me and made me a real nice offer to be the Angels' third base coach," Martin said. "I haven't given Bill my answer yet, because I haven't talked contract with Calvin Griffith (Twins President) yet. He's been real fair with me and I'd talk to him before I did anything."
