The player whose name is in gold was Number One in each category for the decade; the players listed in white finished Numbers Two through Ten, and the players in light gray finished Eleven through Twenty.

On-Base Percentage, Slugging Percentage, and Batting Average are presented on the basis of a minimum of 1,000 plate appearances. In the decade of the 1960s, there were only eleven players who accumulated the required thousand. The nine players printed in dark gray are the remainder of the top twenty finishers in plate appearances for the decade, listed in order of their percentages.
