the verge Of collegiate baseball fame
yesterday with six innings Of no.
hit pitching against George Wash
ington behind him-but at that
point Don Druckenmiller and Art
Kennedy rudely shattered his hopes
of q perfect game with two clean

hurler had to settle for a SO shut
out.
King OF c.. w. held the winners
to six safeties, two by Bob Keene,
but AL Tuminsky's double and
Wayne Reynolds single. plus a
couple of stolen bases and a sacri-
fee, sent two runs over in the third
and that was all the Terps needed.

Mullins Potent Punch
Keeps Tigers Ahead;
Cubs Cling foLead
Dy The A.soeiated Press

Pat Mullin, the toast Of Detroit
with q .444 batting average, is driv-
ing in the runs that Hank Greenberg
used to knock home.
When big Hank was waived out
OF the American League and sold TO
Pittsburgh, Tiger fans asked the
pointed question: "Wfo is going to
knock in the 1877 runs that Hank
batted across last season?"
Nobody mentioned Mullins name.
In fact, when the husky Irishman
from Trotter. Pa, arrived at the
Lakeland, Fla. training base this
spring he was just another ball
player fighting for a job. Mullin
had disclocated his right shoulder
in a collision with Chicago's Bill
Dietrich July 2, 1941, and he was
slow in regaining his prewar form
after four years in service.
With a year behind him, Mullin
again has looked his old self, leading
the league with 13 doubles and hit
ting some 80 points better than any
body else in the majors. OF his 81
hits, 20 have been for extra bases,
including 6 homers and he has
knocked in IA runs in 20 games.
If anybody is going to take Green
berg's place at Detroit this season,
all the early evidence points to Pat.
Mullins second Inning homer
yesterday with Wakefield on base
gave Detroit an searly lead. After
Philadelplaia tied the score and the
clubs had shattfed to the. 18th, .Mul-
lin again opened the winning rally
with . single to set the stage for
Doc Cramer's tie-breaking single.
Dizzy Trout, who required relief
in the last Of the 18th received
credit for the AZ victory over the
AS. The win solidified Detroit's
lead In the American League because
Boston fell before st. Louis. 2-1,
dropping two games back. In night
game, Chicago thumped New York,
3D..
Chicago chung to the National
League lead. despite an s-3 drubbing
by New York, because Boston was
succumbing to st. Louis in a night
game, 81. Brooklyn dropped its
third straight in the West, bowling
to Pittsburgh, 7-3, and Cincinnati
broke out with furry OF five hon.
ers to thump Philadelphia, 11-3.

Clyde Milan Of the Mats, 1t was
revealed, in 1912 beat out Ty Cobb
by stealing 88 bases, although he
din't get on as, often, as the fiery
Georgian. And in 1887 Dummy Hoy
took the league championship away
from the great Billy Sunday with
80 thefts.
Highest score ever made by q
Washington team was In August,
1867. when it beat the Empires in
st. Louis, 113 to 26, also was brought
out. On the same trip the WASH
ington Club hit Is home runs In
one game in beating the Indianapo-
lis Hoosiers, 80 to 10.
Mr.. Griffith named Sam Rice as
the best batter he ever handled,
Fred Marberry as the best relief
pitcher and AL Crowder, next to the
incompatible Walter johnson, as
his best pitcher through the years.
