 | FA Batting Title Belongs to Selander Monday, October 9th , 1961 The Federal Association batting champion for 1961 is the Pittsburgh Miners first baseman Frank Selander. He topped all the batters this season with a .351 average with 166 hits in 473 at-bats. In his standout year the 28-year-old Selander numbered 34 doubles, 13 triples and 12 home runs with 72 RBIs and scored 94 times. "It's always an honor to win such an award," Selander told BNN, "but individual accolades will always pale in comparison to team success." |   |
