DOBY, KELL TIED - INBATTING RACE CHICAGO, June 27—®—George Kell, Detroit’s ace third sacker, is having a hard time trying to stay ahead of Cleveland’s Larry Doby in the American League batting race. Although Kell unotticially pushed ahead yesterday with a two-for- three ‘performance as the Tjgers beat the White Sox 6-4, official figures computed through Sunday’s games had Kell and Doby tied for first at .366. Another Detroit belter, outfielder Hoot Evers, ranked third with .351 Rounding .out the top ten are Walt Dropo, Boston, .347; Irv Noren, Washington, .337; Al Zarilla, Bos- ton, .322; Johnny Lipon, .321; and Ted Williams, Boston, .320.

Today we bow to George Kell, | who won the American League ba'- | ting championship by two ten- | thousands of a point over Ted Wil- | liams last fall. For some unknown reason Kell's | victory over Willlams was greeted | with applause usually reserved for | “cheese champions.” Perhaps it was | because he did not move into the top spot until the very last day. But did it discourage the Ameri- can League's standout third sacker? | Well, the top figure in the majors | today is .372, compiled by George Kell of the Tigers. He has the most hits, the most doubles. It is by no means certain that | Kell will win the championship again this year. There is no doubt, | however, that thus far he’s been the most valuable player in his league. He, more than any other player, has been most responsible for the Tigers' lofty perch. One Game Monday Kell had a hand in Detroit’s up- | hill 6-4 victory over the Chicago | White Sox in yesterday's only big, league encounter. George got two, singles and a walk in four times at} bat. He was the only Tiger to | score against Billy Pierce until De- troit blasted over the four-run win- ning rally in the eighth. The victory increased the Tigers’ first place lead over the idle New York Yankees to 3': games.
