These are the 1911 Major League Baseball season leaders in batting and pitching. Frank Schulte led with 21 home runs, Ty Cobb led with 127 RBI, and Ty Cobb led with 248 hits. Batting average, OBP, SLG and OPS list qualified hitters only — 3.1 plate appearances per team game, which is 474 plate appearances at 153 team games; ERA and WHIP require one inning per team game (153 innings).

HR (Home Runs):
Hits on which the batter circled the bases and scored, almost always by clearing the outfield fence.
RBI (Runs Batted In):
Runs that scored as a direct result of a batter's plate appearance.
ERA (Earned Run Average):
Earned runs allowed per nine innings pitched: (ER × 9) ÷ IP. The primary measure of pitching effectiveness.
