In the history of baseball, there have been just 35 seasons in which a player has hit .400 or above. Several of those seasons were by the same player. It’s hard to do. Hall of Famer Ted Williams was the last player to reach the milestone, hitting .406 in 1941. Nearly 80 years have passed, and no one’s been able to accomplish that feat again. Do any current KC Royals have a shot?
Royals legend George Brett was among those closest to posting a .400 season when he hit .390 in 1980.
