They were the first hurlers In the majors to reach double fig ures in the victory column for 1950 and they did it within hours of each other yesterday. Houtteman was the first to clear the hurdle as he pitched the Detroit Tigers to a 6 to 2 win over the Chicago White Sox. The victory, fourth straight for Detroit, kept the Tigers a fat 414 games ahead in the American league pennant race. A pair of two-run homers by Hoot Evers and Don Kolloway led Detroit's 12-hit attack while Houtteman was scattering nine White Sox safeties. Lemon, a 22-garrie winner last year and a 20-game winner in 1948, gained his 10th 1950 tri umph the easy way as the Cleve land Indians crushed the St. Louis Browns, 18 to 2. The Indi ans paved his path with an 11 run orgy in the seventh inning, which overshadowed their four run splash in the first inning. Sain, a hard-throwing curve- baller who slipped out of the 20-game circle last year for the first time in four seasons, was the first National leaguer to re cord 10 victories. He did it with a 3 to 1 victory for the Boston Braves over the Philadelphia Phils. Sain's win knocked the Phil lies out of first place, putting them a half-game behind the Brooklyn Dodgers, who won their game from the New York Giants, 5 to 3.
