July has been a rough month for Denny McLain. He has three losses and four of his starts have been of the non-quality variety. In this 11-9 loss against the Washington Senators, McLain avoided a loss but came away with another no decision, his fifth of the year. Also, Denny’s earned run average has creeped above the 2.00 mark, sitting now at 2.08.
