Thanks everyone, and TyrusCobb for the link to Anson's article about the issue. Thanks to his research, it seems likely that it was intended to be a monument to memorialize the top American League player each year.
Then again, Griffith Stadium expansion is a possibility, with a 'monument' in the stadium. Either way, sounds like this monument was never built, and we will forever just have to imagine the C.H. Sisler name etched in stone for his fabulous 41,979 batting in 1922.
