Early in the race. at two differ-

winning streaks which resulted in

go July 20. the Yankees with 56
wins and 82 defeats had “on 24
more games than they had lost.
Those :6 games are sccounlcd for

So by deduction. we find that the

Yankees in the first I! games of the
season, excluding the two Winning
streaks of eight and 16 games, have
played only .500 baseball.
Along the same line of reasoning.
the club need only play 50.54: bese-
ball the rest of the year to be right
in the running.
An even break ' down the stretch
will insure the Yanks of winning 90
