The View from the Gangplank: June 1, 1922
A stunning 21-7 month from the lads with us playing some of the best baseball I've ever seen from us.
Our bats, led by Williams who slashes 430/514/710 (!!) with 6 HR and 25 RBI for the month yet doesn't win the best batter gong because Hornsby has an even better month (see below), score an average of over 5 runs per game.
But it is in our pitching ranks the biggest turnaround has taken place. Cooper rediscovers his winning ways and nails down the Pitcher on the Month Award for his 6-0 / 0.67 effort. Johnson is still up and down, but how well they are going right now is best summed up by the three straight shutouts they pitch to close out the month. Quite the exclamation point.
The big question is, of course, can we keep it up? We'll need to stay pretty hot, I know that for sure, as the Cards are looming and looking dangerous.
Awards, news, leaders. This is shaping up as another ripper season.
