Halfway thru June and the races remain incredibly tight, but we have no leaders in both leagues as the St. Louis Cardinals have clawed their way to first place, with a slim two-game edge on both the Pittsburgh Pirates and New York Giants. The previous leaders from Boston are 2.5 games back and Cincinnati sits 3.5 off the pace. In the AL, the Cleveland Blues have surged past the Boston Pilgrims and grabbed the top spot, one game up on Boston, with both Chicago and Detroit 1.5 games back in an incredibly tight race (Philadelphia is 3.5 back).

Newt Madewell has cooled off - some - as his average has fallen below .400 to .397, but he continues to lead both leagues. Tommy Powell has 15 wins and a 1.38 ERA for the Cardinals, while Larry Singer's 13 wins and 1.17 ERA top the American League.
