ST. LOUIS, Dec. 17.-Stan
Musial has a new silver bat for
his trophy case.
The st. Louis Cardinals out
fielder won the National League
batting crown for 1951-the Sec
ond consecutive year he's been the
top hitter in the senior circuit.
No one else has managed to win
the crown two years running since
Rogers Hornsby made a habit of
it with the Cardinals from 1920
through 1925.
Silver bats are awarded an
nually to the champions.
Official National League batting
statistics released yesterday show
Musial atop the list with 1855
average.
Only seven National Leaguers
have won the crown in two sue
cessive years, with Dan Brouthers
of Buffalo first turning the trick
in 1928.
The 1851 championship is the
fifth award won by Musial. The
other four were won in 1943
(.35D, 1916 (.365). 1948 (.36D
and 1850 (.346).
That places him two under
Hornsby and three under Hans
Wagner, the only two National
League players to win more batting
championships than Musial.
At 80, Musial believes he has
