Best Answer

The highest batting average a player can have is 1.000, which would mean that he would have a hit every time he is at bat.

Of course, this wouldn't count the times the batter may have been walked, since walks aren't considered "at-bats" and don't reflect upon his batting average.

For a four year stretch (1910-1913) he batted .402 (.4018). Rogers Hornsby is second in career MLB batting average with .3585 over a career that lasted 23 seasons (1915-1937). Hornsby hit over .400 in three seasons and did Cobb one better by having a FIVE season (1921-1925) batting average of .402 (.4024).
