A tough week for Cleveland, as they lost three of five, but Boston did even worse, going 1-3. Cleveland visits Detroit for three games this week, and the Wolverines might be able to put themselves back into the pennant race if they can sweep.
Meanwhile, Levi Meyerle of Chicago sits at 981 hits with 16 games to go, so it's going to be a race to 1,000 for him.
