Luis Arraez, traded from the Florida Marlins to the San Diego Padres today, could potentially be the first player to ever win a batting average championship as a member of three different teams. He won the AL crown in 2022 as a Minnesota Twin, and the NL crown in 2023 as a Marlin.
1) If Arraez wins the National League batting title this year, he would become only the second player ever to win in a season in which he played for two different teams. Who is the only player to have accomplished this feat?
2) Arraez is the second player to have won a batting title in each of the National and the American Leagues. Who is the only player who has accomplished this feat?
3) In addition to Arraez and the correct answer to 2), only three other players have ever won a batting title as a member of two different teams*. Name all three.
Answer 1), 2), or 3), or any combination of the three. No partial answers for 3), please.
