CAMPEONES BATE

El título de bateo o campeonato de bateo es otorgado al jugador de las Grandes Ligas de Béisbol que tenga el promedio de bateo más alto en la Liga Americana y en la Liga Nacional en una temporada.
Actuamente, un jugador requiere un promedio de 3.1 turnos al bate por cada partido jugado por su equipo para poder calificar para el título de bateo. La excepción a esta regla es que si un jugador no alcanza las 3.1 apariciones al plato por juego pero sigue teniendo el promedio de bateo más alto de la Liga si se agregan los turnos al bat sin hit para alcanzar el 3.1 por juego, entonces ese jugador recibe el título de bateo. El ejemplo más reciente de esta excepción se dio en 1996 cuando Tony Gwynn tenía 159 hits en 451 turnos al bat, un promedio de bateo de .353 pero solo 498 apariciones al plato, 5 abajo de las 503 requeridas. Cinco turnos al bat sin hit bajaban su promedio a .349, pero .349 seguía siendo el promedio más alto de la liga, así que Gwynn fue nombrado el campeón de bateo de la Liga Nacional.
