Although Ted Williams is known as the last Major League Baseball (MLB) player to obtain a single season batting average above .400, the following Hall of Famer's hit above .400 in a single season.

In 1901, Napoleon "Larry" Lajoiewas hit .426. He was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame in 1937.

In 1924, Roger Hornsby hit .424, in 1925, he hit .403, and in 1922, he hit .401. He was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame in 1942.

In 1922, George Sisler hit .420 and in 1920, he hit .407. He was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame in 1939.

In 1911, Ty Cobb hit .420, in 1912, he hit .410, and in 1922, he hit .400. He was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame in 1936.

In 1941, Theodore "Ted" Samuel Williams hit .406. He was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame in 1966.

In 1923, Harry "Slug" Heilmann hit .403. He was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame in 1952.

In 1930, William "Memphis Bill" Terry hit .401. He was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame in 1954.

NOTE: In 1911, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson hit .408; however, he has not been inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame as a result of his alleged participation in the infamous 1919 Chicago Black Sox World Series Scandal.
