OK, now I'm REALLY confused.
I noticed that Bo Bichette is credited with leading the league in hits in 2022 (by which I mean, it's in red), even though Freddie Freeman had more hits and led the majors. Spot-checking backwards, I couldn't find any other instances than Rogers Hornsby where someone led the league (but not the majors) and was NOT credited. (1911--Doc Miller led the NL in hits but was 6th overall, but he's got his hit total in red that year.)
CRAZIER, those two years Hornsby led the NL in hits but isn't credited? The game seems to credit Eddie Collins and Jack Tobin, each of whom had more hits than Hornsby and were 2nd-place overall. But as Doc Miller shows, you can be SIXTH overall and the game gives you credit for leading your league.
WHAT'S GOING ON?! XD

Edit: Looked at the statistical leaders page under the MLB page, selected 1920. George Sisler (Browns) is the leader in hits when leagues are combined, but Eddie Collins (White Sox) and Rogers Hornsby (Cardinals) are leaders of the AL and NL, respectively? Yet Sisler and Collins get credits (red ink) while Hornsby gets none. :P (In fact, ALL of George Sisler's appearances on the leader boards appear to disappear when selecting American League, so at least it's consistent. Would love verification that this happens in other people's games, too.)
