Who will be the best Tigers pitcher at the end of the season?
It is Hornsby with 6, however the case could be made thatRod Carew should have the record with 7, as his streak of 6 out of 7 batting crowns (1972 to '78) was interrupted in 1977
by George Brett who sat out the last two games to keep his % at .333 to nip Rod who ended up at .331.
Either way, Carew and Hornsby were the dominant hitters in their eras.
Link to Carew's stats below.
Excellent question, by the way.

1925 - .403 BA
I need to know this, please help!?
Hornsby does hold the record with 6, but I think Ted Williams could of done it had his career not been interupted by militatary servcie. He led the league in 41-42, then left until 46 for the war. Thats a span of three season in which he didn't play. He didn't win it the year he came back but he still hit 342 after a 3 year break. He led the league the two years after not winning it in 46. Its no gaurantee, but without the missed time he had a possibility of doing it for 8 years in a row. The first two, the three he was gone, the first year back when he was a little rusty, and then the other two he won. I know its alot of maybes, but he still could of done it.How do you calculate baseball's earned run average, ERA!?
This is in response to sportsguys comment actually George Brett sat out due to hemorhoids if you remember anything about Brett's career sittig out to win an award was not in his character, in fact they tried to get him to sit out in 1980 so that he would have a .400 BA but he would not do itMore Questions & Answers...
