NEW YORK — Minnesota's Luis Arraez finished with the lowest average for an American League batting champion since 1968, and the New York Mets' Jeff McNeil won the National League title.
The New York Yankees' Aaron Judge missed out on a Triple Crown, edged by Arraez .316 to .311 for the AL title Wednesday after sitting out the final day of the regular season. McNeil also sat out and made it first-time batting champions in both leagues, his .326 average one point ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers' Freddie Freeman.
