T|ERNEY CROWD|NG H0RNSBY FOR TITLE
Pirates lnfelder Is Only Y
 Points Behind Cards Slug9er

+ Chicago, Sept. l8 (By the Associat- ed Press) Rogers Hornsby the St. Louis star, who few years ago ap- peared to have the batting champion ship of the National league tucked in his hip pocket, today has cause for worry over the 1922 honors.
 Jimmy Tjerney, the Pirate second bascman, is only IT points behind the St. Louis :avorite, and with the close of the season three weeks away may become dangerous contender.
 Tierney Hitting For .38O.
 Just month ago Tierney launched his drive for batting honors. The latest figures which Include games of Wednesday show them batting .3S0 compared with ,345 four weeks ago. In his last six games Tierney has made II hits. Max Carey of the Pirates, has increased his lead in stolen bases to 42 and his record of runs scored to 127.
 Hornsby has 3o7 and has increased his home run string to 37.
 Team Batting
 The Pirates in their race to over- take the Giants, lead in team batting with an average of .311. The Giants are hitting 1908 while the Cardinals are third .302
 Other leading batters for 100 or more games:
 Grimes Chicago .353; Bigbee, Pitts- burgh, $50; Miller, Chicago, .34s.
 Sympathize With Sisler.
 The injury to George Sisler, has cast a gloom not only over St. Louis. but in many other cities where the fans have been pulling for the Browns to win the American league pennant.
 If Sisler is not able to get back fin the game, his batting average of .424 appears to be high enough to in- sure his position as leading hitter for 1922. His closest rival Ty Cobb, is 31 points behind with 3s3; Sisler has the edge for stolen base honors with 47, with Kenneth Williams next with 33.
 Home Run Race.
 The race of Babe Ruth to overtake Williams and Tillie Walker, of the Athletics, for the home run honors, is becoming more exciting. Walker smashed out three during the pas, week and ran his string to 35, while Williams bagged two for total of 37, and the Babe crashed out three for a total of 32
 Other leading batters for 100 or more games: Speaker, Cleveland .375: Heilmann, Detroit, .357; schang, New York, .337.

Within five minutes after McCar-
