Aaron Justifies

leads the National League in

to make his manager. Fred
Haney. look good.
Aaron, a right-handed bats
man with powerful wrists, was
the subject of Haney's discus
sion one Gay in spring training
at Bradenton. Fla. Aaron had
won the National League bat
ting title in 1856 with a 1928
average, but Haney felt that
the hard hitting outfielder was
far from his peak.
Hes a $50 hitter at least, +"
Haney said. Hes only % years
old and he has a long way to
CO." The Braves skipper be-
lieved Aaron would improve in
1857. Hes still a growing boy
and there's no telling how good
he'll get." Haney observed en-
Enthusiastically.
Justifies Optimism
And now with the 1857 sea-
son at the halfway point,
Aaron certainly has more than
justified his managers optim-
ism. At the All-Star break he
sports a BAT average, has hit
81 homers and driven in 70
runs. Aaron also has collected
lit hits and scored 81 runs
both high in the league.
Aaron, currently boasting a
l0-game hitting streak, dis
placed Pittsburgh's Dee Fondy
as the batting leader. Hank
gained seven points on 13-for-
81 in advancing from third a
week ago.
st. Louis Stan Musial, a six
time batting king. fell from Sec
ond to third at BAL. The
Cards ace went 9-for-33 and
suffered an eight-point de-
cline.
Mantle Still on Top
In the American League bat
ting race, Mickey Mantle of
the Yankees. last years cham
pion, holds a commanding 20
point margin over Boston's Ted
Williams. Mantle is swinging
at a 1863 clip as compared to
Williams .343 average.
The YankS' switch-hitting
star dipped Is points on 3-for-
10 and Williams, who has cap
tured four batting titles,
slumped ~ points with four
hits in "a trips.
Baltimore'S Bob Boyd re-
mains third at 1888 despite a
seven-point decrease on 6-for-
%. Bill Skowron increased his
average Is points to 1892 and
moved up from sixth to fourth.
Skowron also took over the
runs-batted-in lead from Roy
Sievers of Washington. The
strapping Yankee first baseman
knocked in eight runs giving
him an output of so, one more
than Sievers. Mantle Socked
one homer and still leads that
department with %.
Aaron connected for four
homers and had nine RIBS to
increase his supremacy in these
categories. Aaron has seven
more homers than Musial, who
has 20. and also has driven
home seven more runs than
Stan, runnerup with Sc.
