That is only true for Sweens (and Ed, and SMF, and Murf, and Ralph, and Mark, and Kerry, and Lyle, and Steve and Phil and .............about everyone else.)

Who is the only player to win a batting title in one league while playing in the other league?

The answer is Willie McGee. 1990 NL batting champ, but a member of the AL's Oakland A's.

McGee's brief stint with Oakland, managed by Tony La Russa, helped propel the team to the 1990 World Series. This would be McGee's fourth trip to the Fall Classic; the Athletics however were pounded in the Series as the Cincinnati Reds would sweep the defending champions in four games. Despite being traded to the AL, McGee had already accumulated 542 plate appearances in the National League, enough for him to qualify for the NL batting crown. Los Angeles' Eddie Murray (.330 average), the New York Mets' Dave Magadan (.328) and others gave chase, but as none were able to catch McGee's .335 NL batting mark, he won his second batting title. McGee's accomplishment marked an odd first in major league history, in which the batting champion for one league ended the season as a member of the other league.
