Kuenn Hitting Ball Sharply As Tigers Score 8-4 Victory
Harvey Kuenn is serving sharp notice this spring that he may be the "man to beat" for the American League batting title.
The experts have been forecasting a battle among Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle and Al Kaline, but the 26-year-old Kuenn looks like he is geared for a fast start that could leave 'em far behind. He's belting the ball at a .404-clip, has hit in 10 straight games and connected safely in all but one of the 15 games he's played.
Kuenn enjoyed his best day of the spring Tuesday when he drove in five runs with a homer, two doubles and a single to lead the Detroit Tigers to an 8-4 victory over the Cincinnati Redlegs. The victory was the Tigers' fourth in six games after they started their Grapefruit League campaign with 8 defeats in 10 contests.
The Baltimore Orioles handed the puzzling Cleveland Indians their seventh setback in eight games when they rallied for three runs in the ninth and a 7-6 decision.
The Pittsburgh Pirates scored their 10th win in 16 exhibition games when they got 2-hit pitching from Dick Hall, Nelson King and Elroy Face to beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-0.
The New York Giants, who are developing into a real spring surprise, downed the Baltimore Orioles, 7-6, and now have won 11 of 16 Grapefruit League games.
The Brooklyn Dodgers poured over seven runs in the third inning and went on to rout the Philadelphia Phillies, 8-3.

Ted Williams Toastmaster
LOS ANGELES—(UP)—Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox, long known as one of the most outspoken players in baseball, will serve as a toastmaster for the first time in his life April 14 in Boston when the Variety Clubs of New England present owner Tom Yawkey of the Sox with the Great Heart award for service to the community.
was the big blow of a battle of homers as the Washington Senators tripped the Kansas City Athletics, 8-7.
Jimmy Piersall homered in the 10th inning to enable the Boston Red Sox to shade the Los Angeles Angels of the Pacific Coast League. 6-5.
Wet Grounds Slow Workouts
Despite the bad weather, the team is shaping into one of the finest units KU has had in the Big Seven.
Due to wet grounds the KU Baseball team has seen little outdoor activity in preparing for its season in the Big Seven. Last week the team practiced in Allen Field House.
KU has one of the best pitching staffs it has had in a longtime. Ron Wiley and Larry Miller along with Bob Shirley and Don Martin will be the starters.
A strong infield will be composed of Don Steinmeyer at third, Barry Robertson at shortstop, Don Pfutzenreuter at second, Jim Trombold at first, and Barry Donaldson catching.
Bob Marshall will be starting in center field and will add speed to the outfield. Along with Marshall will be Ed Dater from the basketball squad who also has great speed. He will be stationed in right.
The team will open its season against the University of Houston Monday at Houston, Texas.

Casey Stangel Confronted With Unusual Problem
Although Stengel, shooting for his eighth pennant in nine years as skipper of the Yankees, earlier this spring said he "could break the league apart with 14 players," he
claims now, he might need as many as "seventeen."
"I have guys who can play four positions," he pointed out. "My problem is not whom to play," but to remember the names of all my guys.
