Leaders in baseball through the major league games Thursday are: National League Batting — Musial, St. Louis, .366; Slaughter, St. Louis, .351.

Brother, it’s no mistake this year. Day after day Kell keeps moving his average a little higher. Now it's | 386, best in the majors. Williams, | moving up gradually after a serious | slump, is hitting .326. Oldtimers are reminded of Ty Cobb by the way Kell holds his bat with his hands several inches apart. For years it's bebn stylish to swing | from the end of the bat, aiming tor | | the stands. Kell finds he can spray | his shots to all fields. And he still gets his three or four homers a sea- son. Nobody is calling him a “freak hitter” this spring. Kell slashed two singles and a double in three trips against Phila- delphia yesterday as the Tlgersl thumped the A’s, 7-3. The victory, coupled with a New York deteat, zave Detroit a 1': game lead in ‘he American lead race. Freddy Hutchinson survived a | shaky start and finish to rack up| 1is seventh victory for the onrush-! 31]! Tigers who have swept 17 ot ‘heir last 21 starts. Maybe Chicago’s Billy Pierce “"'i uly “arrived” with his 5-0 one- hitter against the New York Yan- kees yesterday, the best pitched zame of the season and his Ilrsll big league shutout. I When the Tigers, desperate for a catcher, made a deal with Chicago for Aaron, Robinson after the 1948 Pierce went to the White season, Sox. Only a single by Billy Robinson, leading off the fifth inning, robbed Pierce of a no-hitter in a game in- serrupted three times by rain. It was the third straight for the White 30x over the Yanks. At Cleveland Bobby Lemon hit a j0ome run in the Tribe’s 3-1 victory over Boston. Lemon’s homer tiec ‘he score in the fifth and Al Rosen’s 17th of the year with Larry Doby )n base in the sixth ruined Walt Masterson’s first start. z Lemon’s eighth victory, high in the American, enabled the Indians ‘0 take the series from Boston which had won the opener. St. Louis pulled out of the cellar with a come-from-behind win over Washington, 16-9. Dick Kokos hom- ered for the Browns and Eddie Stewart and Eddie Yost for the Senators in the wild slugfest. Billy Southworth’s Boston Braves, revived by their return home, knocked off Cincinnati in both ends of a doubleheader. It was the only action in the National. Rain washed out the St. Louis at Philadelphia night game and the Chicago at Brooklyn and Pittsburgh at New York day games. Sid Gordon hit his 13th homer plus a double and two singles to help lefty Warren Spahn win the first game, 5-3. It was Spahn’s eighth success. The second game went 10 innings before Tommy Holmes singled home Walker Cooper with the winning run 6-5. The double victory boosted the Braves into fourth place ahead of the idle Cubs.
