Mays Could Be First in 34 Years
Willie Mays might become the NL’s first .400 hitter since 1930 as he chases a rare mark with .488 average early in the season. Al Dark argues the feat is unlikely due to greater pitching depth and tougher overall competition, despite Mays’s all around brilliance.

Bob Lee Soars With Angels After Sharp Start
Bob Lee, rookie right-hander for the Los Angeles Angels, won his first major league game with a one hitter through seven innings against Washington. He later dazzled in an 11-inning affair with Cleveland, but the Indians won 2-1. Lee rose from Batavia in the New York-Pennsylvania League to the Angels after eight minor league seasons, ending 20-2 with a 1.70 ERA there, and has posted a 1.29 ERA over two 21-inning starts for Los Angeles. The article notes rain-affected AL games and Lee’s rapid ascent from Class D to the majors, aided by a remarkable early major league stretch.
