Every hitter who has opened the season going 1 for 1, 1 for 2, 2 for 3, 2 for 5, 4 for 10 and so on can claim to have hit .400 IN a season. Batting titles FOR a season are based on a minimum number of at bats. Ted Williams holds the distinction of being the last Major League Player to do so having hit .406 average (185 for 456) in 1941.
