williams' 1941 season is often considered to be the best offensive season of all time, though the mvp award would go to dimaggio. the .406 batting average—his first of six batting championships—is still the highest single-season average in red sox history and the highest batting average in the major leagues since 1924, and the last time any major league player has hit over .400 for a season after averaging at least 3.1 plate appearances per game. ("if i had known hitting .400 was going to be such a big deal", he quipped in 1991, "i would have done it again.") williams' on-base percentage of .553 and slugging percentage of .735 that season are both also the highest single-season averages in red sox history. the .553 obp stood as a major league record until it was broken by barry bonds in 2002 and his .735 slugging percentage was the highest mark in the major leagues between 1932 and 1994. his ops of 1.287 that year, a red sox record, was the highest in the major leagues between 1923 and 2001. despite playing in only 143 games that year, williams led the league with 135 runs scored and 37 home runs, and he finished third with 335 total bases, the most home runs, runs scored, and total bases by a red sox player since jimmie foxx's in 1938. williams placed second in mvp voting; dimaggio won, 291 votes to 254, on the strength of his record-breaking 56-game hitting streak and league-leading 125 rbi.
