Baseball: Quick AB Question

For some reason I can't remember this, but how many AB's does it take to become eligible for an offensive title, whether it be HR's or AVG?

nearest i can tell the player must have a minumum average of 3.1 plate appearences per team game. so in a 162 game season a player must have just over 500 plate apperances not at bats.

pitchers must have 1 inning pitched per team game to qualify for pitching titles. in a 162 game season a pitcher must have 162 innings pitched.

Yes, it's just over 500, 502 PA to be exact.
