Lumley was promoted to the, AA roster only last week but Ti- ger officials felt he hadn't pitched enough because of his shoulder problems. "Mike feels alright and is not too upset about the situation," said Mike Lumley Sr. in a tele- phone interview Sunday. "The Tigers felt he hadn't pitched enough innings in spring training to warrant coming north and the pain hasn't gone awa u to then but they are keeping an eye on him;" said the elder Lum- ley. um- 1e Lumley hasn't thrown in a game situation yet, only twice in the bullpen because of the shoulder problems but threw along the sidelines last week without much pain. The senior Lumley still believes if the shoulder problems subside his son will be in a London Ti- gers' uniform before the end of May. The London Tigers play their first game of the Eastern Baseball. League next Friday, April 7 at La- batt Park in London, against the Albany Yankees.
