Let's not overreact here. Just off the top of my head, 1968 came to mind...
Here's '68s MLB batting leaders..
1. Rose (CIN) .335
2. Alou (PIT) .332
3. Alou (ATL) .317
4. Johnson (CIN) .312
5. Flood (STL) .301
6. Yastrzemski (BOS) .301
7. Jones (NYM) .297
Yes, only a grand total of SIX... And YES again, you are seeing that correctly, Yaz was the ONLY AL hitter to bat .300
