Minoso, Fox Os .White Sox Lead Hitlers New York, June B.—(UP)—The\ old national pastime is in a strange state when a > league's top hitters pre named Ijdinnie and Nellie but Jtnese characters, who sound like Uris’ softball stars.nare just part of today’s fantastic White Sex story. 1 In fact everything about the Sox is just plain “opt of tips world.” ; That Orestes (Minnie) Minoso at .366 and Nelson (Nellie) Fox at .365 are the American league’s two top hitters is astonishin enough. That Vlpicago has won 2 ’ out of 22 and is now 21 games t bove .5 Gt) with a giddy 32-11. .744 percentage is still more astoun ding. Then there are such things is a 14-2 ro.ad record, 35 stolen .bases is more than doubh dn’e 16 total for the next closest club, and their two big winning streaks of 15 games and six., the last still unbroken. But most astonishing of all is xookie pilot Paul Richards’ brash but expert manipulation of hl3 pitchers. In eight games he has started eight different men and the last six, .Harry Dorish, Lo t Kretlow. Randy Gumpert. Saul Rogovin. Billy and Howie Judson turned in rouie-going victories after Joe Dobson and Ken Holcombe .were beaten in a twogame breather between winning streaks. Getting his aces ready for the big four-game showdown series with the Yankees the retikless Richards gambled by using Dorish and Kretlow’, two pitchers who had not started previously this season against the Senators.! Dorish, who hadn’t started since Aug. 4 of last season when he toiled for the low-living Brownx. icsponded with d\ five-hit, 5 to o victory, the second shutout in the Current Streak and Chicago’s sixth this year. Did that add up, using a guy who had only a sad 4-9 xecord with the Browns? It wouldn’t, except that Richarda remembers things. And it wa» significant to Ihim that all four o the Dorish 1950 victories were ovei the Senators. So, presto, he bea f taem again. The day before, he had started Kretlow, who hadn’t l-egun a game since July 7, 1949. and he came through with a fourlatter. And the way the Sox get runs
