I already answered Kitso's question correctly a couple of spaces above your answer...but it's cool.
The Giants last won in 1954 when they beat the Cleveland Indians (huge upset because the Indians won 111 games during the regular season). That was the series that included "The Catch," Willie Mays' catch to rob Vic Wertz.
My Question: Who has the highest modern batting average for a season, and what is the average?
