September 26, 1978 LOOK ME IN THE EYE Erika Weitzner of the New Brunswick (N.J.) Home News interviews New York Yankees second baseman Willie Randolph in the Yankee clubhouse after Tuesday night’s game with the Toronto Blue Jays. Earlier, a court ordered the Yanks to open the doors to women.

“It’s not a very comfortable situation,” said relief pitcher Rich Gossage. “They don’t belong here. As athletes, we feel this is a pretty private place for us. It’s a place to get away from people and be comfortable.

If a woman is able to handle it professionally, I guess it’s okay, but if they’re gonna stand around and watch you undress…”

“Where are they when you need ’em?” third base coach Dick Howser asked with a. smile. “When you need ’em, you can’t stir ‘ffin with a stick. Now they’re all over the place.”

Pitcher Ron Guidry, who rarely gets excited, shrugged it off. “They’ve gotten into everything else,” he said. “But if I walked into their locker room they’d probably have an epileptic fit.”
