We're halfway thru the month of May in the 1962 NL season. The San Francisco Giants are in 1st place in the league. All teams are within single digits of the Giants except for the Chicago Cubs. The St. Louis Cardinals continue to be the top offensive team. The Cardinals are hitting a league high .312 and scoring 6.03 runs per game. But the St. Louis pitching also continues to be next to last in the league (4.62 ERA). Cardinal 1st baseman Bill White is 1st in the Triple Crown batting categories (.381 BA, 10 HR, 31 RBI). Cincinnati's Bob Purkey (8-0, 1.63 ERA) has been the top pitcher in the NL.
