"Stats count for tomorrow, so I'm not going to comment on it," said Holliday, who needs to drive in one run to catch Philadelphia's Ryan Howard for the NL lead in RBIs.
Holliday led Jones .3397 to .3392 going into Sunday, but Jones went 0-for-3 with a walk at Houston and fell to .337. Holliday would have to go 0-for-5 or worse Monday to lose the title.
"I have submitted my body of work for the season," said Jones, who finished with a career-best .337 average. "If it happens, it happens. I'm going to go home and get ready for a nice offseason."
In the American League, Magglio Ordonez finished with a flourish, going 3-for-4 to wind up at .363. Seattle's Ichiro Suzuki was second at .351.
"It means a lot. To tell you the truth, I don't know how I did it, but I did it," Ordonez said. "You always have your goals, but sometimes you don't get your goals. But this time I surpassed my goal, and it was amazing."
Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees won his fifth AL home run crown with 54, the third-most titles in AL history behind Babe Ruth (11) and Harmon Killebrew (six).
Milwaukee's Prince Fielder won his first NL home run crown with 50. He joined his father Cecil (51 for Detroit in 1990) to become the first father-son combo to both reach 50, and at 23 years old became the youngest player to hit 50 homers. Willie Mays was 24 when he hit No. 50 in 1955.
Rodriguez led the AL with 156 RBIs, joining Ruth, Hack Wilson, Jimmie Foxx and Sammy Sosa as the only players with at least 50 homers and 150 RBIs in a season. Howard's 136 RBIs lead the NL.
A-Rod scored 143 runs, the most in the AL since Rickey Henderson's 146 in 1985. Philadelphia's Jimmy Rollins led the NL with 139.
Suzuki had 238 hits, topping the AL for the fourth time, and Holliday's 214 lead the NL. Rollins also had 716 at-bats, breaking the record of 705 set by Kansas City's Willie Wilson in 1980.
Suzuki reached 200 hits for the seventh straight season, matching Wade Boggs (1983-89) for the AL mark and one shy of the major league record set by Willie Keeler from 1894-1901.
