Batters of the Month:

AL - Joseph Maguire, SS, Philadelphia Athletics - Maguire may be one of the best hitting shortstops in the league. He began the season slowly, but he hit .393 with 23 RBI and 21 runs scored. He hit two home runs, accounting for a few "cheap" RBI.

NL - Tim Baily, CF, Chicago Orphans - Tim hit .368 with 20 RBI and 16 runs scored, but his outrageous 5 home runs this month caused many opponents to accuse him of unfair play. He has hit 7 balls out of the park this season.
