September 21st 1894 Update

We are in the last 10 games of the regular season. In the American League, Columbus Solons have clinched the division. But over
in the National League, the road is still cloudy with the Colts and the Phillies battling it out to see who will represent the League in
the World Series.

There is another battle going on, it is a battle between Ed Delahanty of the Senators and Billy Hamilton of the Solons.
Who will be crowned the best hitter of the year?
