The last time an MLB player won the batting Triple Crown was when Miguel Cabrera did so during the 2012 season as a member of the Detroit Tigers.
An offensive player can win the Triple Crown by leading his respective league in batting average, home runs, and runs batted in. Cabrera led the American League with a .330 batting average, 44 home runs, and 139 RBIs.
In MLB history, 10 players have won a total of 12 Triple Crowns since RBIs became an official statistic in 1920. There were five Triple Crown winners before 1920, including one from the American Association.
