1972 NL News Recap with League Leaders

September 1, 1972

It's the 1st of September and Chicago's Billy Williams has a hold on the Triple Crown. Williams finally overtook Houston's Ceasar Cedeno as the top hitter (BA) in the NL. Cincinnati's Johnny Bench has been on a tear as of late and has closed the gap on Williams in the RBI category.
