Yes and yes. Hornsby in 1922 and 1925; Williams in 1942 and 1947.
Two more (one in the Negro League and one in the Eastern Colored League/Negro League).

Yes, 1936 and 1937 Negro National League. Missing one, not Nap Lajoie (who won it in 1901).
Yastremski was close but not quite the lowest; he hit .326 in 1967.
Cap Anson didn't win the triple crown.
And card crimson, I wasn't trying to be sly; my source (baseball-reference.com) included the Negro Leagues.

That was the third source that popped up for me. Part of trivia is being sly, was giving you credit. . . .
Free Phogge!!!! And no, crimson doesn't refer to the Tide.
