can all be traced to the batting
prowess of one Ty Cobb, with II
championships to his credit in 20
campaigns. Some record,
So after all there is no great diff
ference between the two styles OF
batting as far as championship honors
are concerned. In 25. years Of play
in the two big leagues 26 Of the cham
pions have hit from the left side Of
the plate, % from the other side.
Hal Chase hit either way, as mention
cd above.
1t is a rather interesting fact that
Harry Hcilmann is the only right
handler to lead the American League
in the last 20 years. Larry Lajoie,
in 1905, was the last right-handcr to
be in front until Heilmann copied in
1921.
Hcilmann has had the rather uni
que experience of leading every
other year during the three times that
he has won. He finished in front IN
1921. 1923 and 1925.
