Sisler still tops the American League batters today despite a drop from .425 last week to .419 this week, the Jatter mark including games of last Wednesday, Sisler cracked out nine hits in his x scored six runs, and stole five bases, and ag a result con- tinues.to be the whole show, with the exception of the home run attraction. With his twenty-three stolen bases, Sisler is far in front of his rivals on the paths, his closest competitor be- ing Kenneth Williams, who has pil- fered seventeen bases, The late start and slow progress made by “Babe” Ruth, the King of Swat, to retain his honors, has en- couraged other players to enter the competition in the hope of topping the “Babe.” Ken. Williams, of St. Louis bagged another homer bringing his string to fourteen. Ruth has three. Kd Miller of Philadciphia, is frailing Williams with 12; Harry Heil- mann of Detroit, and C.
