Sorry, one of my favorite questions of all time (and he's already in the hall) Eddie Murray. He led the majors in batting but Willie McGee was traded to the A's near the end of the season from the NL. When he was traded he was hitting higher than Murray wound up at, but his average with the A's lowered him below Murray's figure. He did have enough plate appearances, however, to qualify for the NL title. Murray had a higher average than the AL Batting leader and a higher average than McGee's combined total, so he led the majors in batting but no title.
