GROVE HEADING FOR NEW LEAGUE
 PITCHING MARKS
World Champion Detroit Tigers Failed to Score
 in 3 Games at Hub

Boston, May 6-(UP)-Blessed by shutout pitching, both Boston ball clubs held their winning pace today, the Red Sox still safely at the head of the American League and the Bees up one notch in sixth place in the National League.
 Robert Lefty" Grove and Danny MacFayden were the pitching he- roes of yesterdays triumphs. Grove set down the world champion De- troit Tigers 3 to 0, and MacFayden squelched Paul Dean and the St. Louis Cardinals 1 to o.
 Marvellous!
 As Q result of yesterdays shutout, his third in five starts, Grove ap- peared headed for new American League pitching honors. In A in- nings he has allowed but three runs, only one of them earned. His last 20 2-3 consecutive innings have been scoreless.
 Groves three shutouts have come the hard way-over the Yankees, Indians and Tigers. These are tho three clubs rated. to fight out the pennant with the 4ox. His two "or- dinary" victories have come at the expense of the Tanks and Wash- ington.
 Groves performance yesterday, coupled with Wes Ferrell's Sunday shutout, leaves the world champions without so much as Q single run to show for their Boston invasion.
 The long lean southpaw gave the Tigers i've hits, all scattered, and famed five. Not content with pitch- ing honors, Grove turned hitter, rapping out Q double to drive in the first run and scoring the second himself on Dusty Cooke's triple.
 Some Big Help
 Groves shutout feat would have been impossible without the work of Doc Cramer, who was all over center field, snaring nine sharp drives.
 MacFayden, meanwhile, was let- ting the Cardinals down with three hits in St. Louis. The only Bees pitcher to go the full route all sea- son, MacFayden was virtually air- tight. Only four Cardinals reached first, three on hits, the fourth on Coscaraat's tumble.
 The victory was Danny's third straight, and gave the Bees a sur- prising 2-1 margin over the Car- dinals in the series. It was the Bees fifth win in seven western starts.
 Both Boston clubs engage new foes today. The St. Louis Browns, currently tail-erders in the Ameri- can League, move into Boston for two games with the Red Hox. John ny Marcum has been nominated to start for the Sox, the Browns' choice was uncertain.
 The Bees move on to Chicago to tackle the Cubs, and Wayne Os- borne, rookie hurler, was expected to pitch. Tex Carleton was due to start for Chicago.
