But McCarver’s interests run beyond a batting championship. "For me to lead the league in hitting is out of reach,” said McCarver. ‘Tve been flirting with .300 since I’ve been in the

majors but I’ve never made it. Anyway, I’d rather bat .240 and win the pennant than hit .340 and finish out of it. "I got a taste of the World Series in 1964,” explained the Cardinal catcher, "and now I can’t get enough of it. It’s everything it’s built up to be and more.” With the score tied 1-1 in the fourth inning Monday night, McCarver hit his second single and Mike Shannon, who drove in four runs, followed with a two run homer. In the fifth, McCarver’s third straight hit moved Roger Maris, who had singled, to third and Shannon brought him in with a sacrifice

Dick Williams has a formula that builds pennant winners and if Mother Nature plays her part in the plan, the people in Boston are in for a long awaited treat. The ingredients are simple: 25 strong young bodies and a couple of months of good hot weather. The rookie Red Sox manager has already surprised most baseball experts by getting his club off to a strong start during the first half of the season despite having to play 50 games on the road. But Williams thinks has team will get stronger in the next two months. Boston moved into third place Monday behind the hitting of Joe Foy and Carl Yastrzemski and the pitching of Lee Stange as they defeated the slumping Detroit Tigers 7-1. It was Detroit’s seventh straight setback and dropped the Bengals into fourth place. "This is the Red Sox’ time of year,” said the peppery Wil-
