Denny McLain, linked previously with Hall of Famers, remains upbeat about a 4-14 record for the Washington Senators. The 27-year-old righthander notes he has four more wins than last year and cites poor run support as a major factor. He faces the Yankees next after a 4-0 loss in New York, with Ted Williams balancing rest days and a five-day start pace.
