Mayo's name never will be
bracketed with Gehringer, Coch-
rane. Greenberg or any of ths
other Tigers of that glorious era
as concerns baseball ability. But
not one of that crew ever did
more with what talents they pos
sessed than the hustling Mayo 10
doing this season. He gives the
last full ounce 10 the Tiger Gauss
in every game.
Matter of fact, il a vote for the
leagues most valuable player
award were taken today there
would be terrific howl from
local clients if Mayo failed TO re-
.ceive the honor.
There will be increased in-
terest In big Al Benton each
time he takes the mound from
now until the end Of the cam
paIgn. He has a chance to put
record for earned runs In
the book that will top anything
baseball has ever known.
Al has not permitted more
than two runs In any game he
has pitched and his earned run
average is e.SeI. About the only
thing lower than this In bAse-
ball Is the standing of the
Phillies In the National League.
Considering that Benton h
fsshioning this record on q leg
still not fully monded makes
the mark all tho more impros-
siye.

6 Of 10 Wins
Are Shutouts
BY LEO MACDoNELL

Al Benton, the Tiger mound
wizard, today had added new luS-
ter 10 an already glamorous
pitching campaign inaugurated
when he rejoined the club this
spring after having been given a
discharge from the navy.
When the big right-hander
blanked the Browns, 6 to o, at
Briggs Stadium, il was his tenth
victory against but two defeats,
six Of the victories being shutouts.
He has hurled Ill innings. the
equivalent of 12h nine-inning
games. during which time he has
yielded only IL earned runs, an
average of less than one q game.
Only three unearned runs were
scored off him. making the total
Ia. That he has anything but a
soft road Of il, despite his bril-
liant pitching, is revealed IN a
total of only 33 runs scored for
him by his mates.
STRUGGLE UNTIL EIGHTH
Yesterday was a big day for
Benton. when the Tigers amassed
six runs, yet Al struggled along
with one until the eighth. Then
his mates stepped out and victory
secure with five more markers.
A crowd of l3,203 customers
also marveled at tn @ power OF
Eddie Mayo. who bagged two
home runs that accounted for
four of Detroit's half dozen tai
lies. The brace of homers came of
Jack Kramer and were the eighth
and ninth of the season for the
peppery second baseInan.

For eight innings Benton and
Kramer battled through bitter
