You can see that Miggy's Triple Crown total is the least in the modern era of Triple Crown winners! Wow!
Rogers Hornsby takes the prize by ONE POINT over an incredible year by Lou Gehrig. Tip O'Neill's early era 6.15 ppg is astonishing. Only a handful of batters average HALF of that every year. And even though there is nothing as astronomical as that in the modern era, the PPG's in the upper 4's and point totals rivaling a starting pitcher's best year is really incredible by these Triple Crown winners, and somehow Miguel Cabrera ends up at the bottom of the list after ending up at the top of 3 lists.
