Boggs wins the batting title. As the first pitch is thrown, Gedman reaches out to catch it, bumping Mattingly's bat. Mattingly takes first on the catcher's interference. As that is scored an error on the catcher, Mattingly gets charged with an at bat and no hit. Now when Boggs is due up, he is removed. Thus Boggs wins the title. (If Mattingly gets up again, he is walked.) I know it's not fair, but unless the rule has been changed recently, that's the way it is.
