With the team name in the teams table, it's entirely redundant in the batting table, should not be there, it's only an opportunity for data skew errors.

If you prefer not to correct that error, your query would be something like ...

UPDATE batting b
JOIN teams t USING(teamID)
SET b.TeamName=t.name;
