Batting title qualifying bug!

Night2000 · 03-12-2002, 05:26 PM

As far as I know, it still takes 502 at bats to
qualify for the batting title. So if this is still true then it appears that OOTP4 needs to be tweaked in this area. Included here is the top 15 batters for the ending season in one of my leagues. Note A. Miranda who won the batting title hitting an amazing .402 with only 478 at bats. Also the 11th batter with only 438 at bats.

I stand corrected, thanks!

Just curious whether it will award batting titles for guys with fewer plate appearances than required to qualify, but who would still have the leading batting average if they were charged with enough extra at-bats to qualify?

For example, if Tony Gwynn has 500 PA's but is leading the batting race by 50 points, he should still get the batting title according to MLB scoring rules.
