Red Sox Need .500 Average To Slide Home Br The Associated Press Thumping Teddy Williami is baseball'! man of the hour almost certain to be named most valuable player in the Ameri can league if the Boston Red Sox cop the big prize. Adding 11 points to his batting average with one after noon's effort on seven hits In nine times at bat, the sharp-eyed slugger with the limber wrists is tops in batting at .365 and ranks first in runs scored, runs batted in, total hits and home runs It's a good thing he never took up base stealing. Williams hit for the cycle in yesterday's second game triumph over St. Louis 7-4, topping a single, double and triple with his 27th home run, a 400-foot drive well into the right field stands at Fenway park.

While the Seals were drop ping their first game, 5 to 4, to Uollywood, the Oakland Oaks were shutting out Los Angeles I to 0 to gain the league leader ship. But the Oaks' tenure was short lived. They dropped the second game to the Angels, 7 to 3, and the Seals walloped Hollywood 9 to 3 to go back into their precarious half-game cad- . . . The two-hit pitching of Frank Shea for Oakland shaded a beau tiful three-hit job by Red Lynn of the Angels and spelled the Acorns' victory in the first game.

The powerful bat of Al Un ser, who smacked two home runs, gave Hollywood its victory over the Seals in the opener Lefty Cliff Melton, backed by II hits, pitched the Seals back into the league lead in th night cap.

Vic Lombardi and Hank Behr man recorded wins over Pitts burgh as the Dodgers continued to show encouraging signs of snapping out of their slump. Three-Hit Pitching Lombard! blanked the Bucs with three hits, the best mound job of the day, 3-0, but Behrman required some bullpen help from Hal Gregg and an inside-the-park homer by Carl Furillo with a man on to sink the Pirates, 6-5. Chicago set a new paid atten dance record at Wrigley Field with a turnout of 45,615, but the Cubs could do no better than split with the Phillies.
