During May the Pittsburghs pulled up to the head of the first division,
with the percentage figures of .710, Cleveland being second with .679,
and Baltimore third with .654; Boston, Philadelphia and New York
following in order--Brooklyn being tied with New York for sixth
place. Baltimore had pulled up ahead of Boston, while Philadelphia fell
off, as did St. Louis and Cincinnati, both of the latter clubs retiring
to the second division, while Washington allowed the April tail-enders
to push them into the last ditch, and it was not until August 23d that
they got out of it.
