I thought Melky was several plate appearance from being eligible for the batting title, but I read today that he's so close, all that would need to happen would be for the statisticians to find one more hitless at bat for him during the season, or for the Giants finish the season with less then 162 games played (ie. an unnecessary rain-out date is not made up), if I understand it correctly.
