Both Robinson and Kaline have recently returned to active duty, but Boston ended the week with a 7.0 games lead over Baltimore and an 8.5 games lead over Detroit. Luckily for Detroit, they have a 9.5 games lead over the fourth-place Chicago club, so they don’t have to worry about being caught from behind, but August games begin this coming Tuesday, so if either of these teams has intentions of capturing the AL pennant, ...
