Around baseball, the Yankees are riding high atop the AL, while the Cardinals have been dominant in the NL.
The Yankees’ ace Whitey Ford went down with a badly pulled arm muscle in a game on April 23. He has been out since, and is not expected to return to the rotation for about another month. Ted Williams, despite his age, has continued to play well for Boston and is tops in the AL in OPS. Wally Moon, meanwhile, has been the NL MVP so far.
