Johnson’s statistician gave Carl the Yankee pitcher, two sots of rages, one of 225, which include Yankee games, and another of .151, eliminating the New York games. But here is a bit of rare inconsistency. | While N has two sets of averages, the games in which he pitched are in- cluded in the verages of all players who played with or him, Ta give Mays only two sets of averages means absolutely nothing. If the leaguo takes the stand that the ames in which he appeared in a New York uniform are illegal then the av- crages of all the players in such | sames must necessarily be thrown | out, the same as when a protest is sustained and a game is played over. All the regular batsmen in the lea- zue faced Mays after he came to New York and those games are all included in their batting averages. The Mays games also are included In the club batting records. The Yankee's club batting figure has been taken fram the entire 141 games played by the club, which includes 80 victories, 59 defeats and two tles.
