Title in American League
by the Assoeioted Press

CHICAGO. July 26.-Boston's
Ted Williams and Dom Di Maggie

virtual deadlock for the American
League batting lead.
In averages computed through
Sundays games, Williams I'M
corked a gain Of 10 percentage
points to tie Kell, each with .342
The Detroit third-sacker picked
up six points. Di Maggie, last
weeks leader, slipped one point
to .341.
Bob Dillinger of st. Louis fat

.339. He was followed by Roy
Sievers of st. Louis with 1923;
Gerry Priddy. st. Louis, .318; Cass
Michaels, Chicago, .3l1; Dale

Robinson's long fly gave the Mats

A'sEnd THpWith One Thought;
THINGS Could Hardly Be Worse

York Yankees. The road trip
figure would be good enough
for only seventh place.
The AS overall record to date
of 40 wins and 43 losses puts
the club in fourth place, nine
games behind the Yankees and
one game back Of the third
place Boston Red Sox.
Tonight's opposition will be
provided by the st. Louis
Browns, the leagues last-place
club. but a thorn In the side
of the AS all year.
In 10 starts against the lowly
Browns, the Mackmen have
won exactly five. and four of
those victories were credited to
Alex Kellner, 24-year-old rookie
southpaw scheduled to pitch
for the AS tonight.
Kellner, not even figured for
a starting spot this season, has
been one of the few pleasant
surprises among the AS hurl-
ers. His log now shows 10 wins
against 5 defeats.
OF Mack's preseason starting
pitchers, Bill McCahan has
been optioned to Buffalo in the
International League, Phil
Marchildon hasn't been able to
produce because of a sore arm,
and both Dick Fowler and Lou
Brissie have been complaining
of arm trouble since the start
of the season.
To make matters worse, first
string Catcher Buddy Rosar
has been sidelined since July
9 with a strained shoulder liga-
ment, and Outf1elder Barney
McCosky - with a lifetime
American League batting aver
age of .320-hasn't been able to
play a single inning this year
because of a sore leg.
McCosky, on the disabled list
for the last so days, becomes
eligible for play again today.

but neither as yet threatens Jackie
Robinson's grip on the National
League batting leadership.

tional eight for IA at Brooklyn's
Ebbets Field. Slaughter. how

for third with another Redbird
teammate. Al (Red Schoendienst.
The hustling Cardinal outf1elder
collected IS hits in 80 times dur
ing the week and raised his fig
ure to 1873. That was still 36
points behind Robinson's league
leading 1859. The brilliant Brook
lyn second baseman fell off bit,
shedding seven points from his
1866 of week ago.
Robinson's closest pursuer was
Willard Marshall, the stocky out
fielder of the New York Giants,
whose 1892 entitled him to second
place. Another Giant. Bobby
Thomson. moved up a couple Of
notches into a nth place tie with
mis- 1922. The other fifth place
share holder was Ralph Kiner OF

PHILADELPHIA, July 90
After one of their most disas-
trous road trips in recent years.
the Philadelphia Athletics were
home today hoping for better
things to come.
Their optimism was based
on two indisputable facts:
/. Things couldn't get much
worse.
2. Their record at Shibe Park
this year has been of pennant-
winning caliber. while their
won-lost mark on the road has
been strictly second division.
Their latest venture afleld
was a pretty good example.
In II games on the road, the
charges of Connie Mack could
win only five-and two of those
victories came in the twin bill
which wound up the trip at
Chicago Sunday.
SO far this season, the AS
have managed to win only 81
games away from home while
losing 80 for an average OF
.389.
At home, on the other hand,
the Mackmen have chalked up
% victories against 10 losses
for a mark of 1877.
That home stand record
would put the AS well out in
front of the American Leagues
