June 20, 1962
It's June 20th and the Minnesota Twins continue to hold the lead in the AL by going 7-3 over the last 10 days. Only my Detroit Tigers gained ground by going 8-2 and are now 4 games behind the Twins. The Washington Senators and Cleveland Indians are the only other teams above .500.
LA's Leon Wagner has continued his hot hitting with 7 homeruns and 9 RBI over the last 10 days. He leads the AL in both categories. The bottom 2 teams in the league, Baltimore and Boston, have at least provided the top 2 hitters in Brooks Robinson (.350 BA) and Pete Runnels (.348 BA). Minnesota's Camilo Pascual (13-1, 2.73 ERA, 103 K) and New York's Ralph Terry (10-3, 2.45 ERA, 78 K's) continue to be the top starters in the AL.
