Darryl's first month in St. Louie gave mixed results. With a .242 average and 6 homers, Darryl isn't the next
Stan the Man at this pace by any means. The next Joe Torre, perhaps.
"You were middling away in Toronto with no pressure at all on you, now with the big lights of St. Louis you are suffering even more."
"I just ain't used to the-"

"Only for a couple of months"

League Notes:
Can this guy be that good?
The Royals have struck gold with 25-year old Ken Howell. Howell has played for 2 full seasons. 2 Cy Youngs. 3 All Star Appearences. Taken in the
3rd round by Kansas City, Howell has been by far the most productive player in the 1984 draft. Howell is 14-1 with a 2.08 ERA.
