The Triple Crown
There are two types of Triple Crown, one is for batters and the other for pitchers. While it is not really a yearly award or an honour, it is only a way to recognize the effort of a batter who leads the league in home runs, runs batted in, and batting average. Likewise, recognizing a pitcher who leads or ties his league earned run average, wins, and strikeouts.
Triple Crown Award
The Triple Crown is an acknowledgement that a player has gained excellence in batting or pitching. It has been a long time since there were any winners of the Triple Crown, for hitting, the most recent winner was Carl Yastrzemski in 1967, and for pitching, it was Johan Santana in 2006.
