Houston Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez is pursuing Major League Baseball’s Triple Crown, a rare feat that requires leading the league in batting average, home runs, and runs batted in (RBIs) in the same season.
Both outlets note that this pursuit places Alvarez among a very small group of players. Forbes points out that the last Triple Crown winner is Miguel Cabrera of the Detroit Tigers in 2012. Yahoo Sports adds broader historical context, saying Alvarez would be only the second player since 1967 to win the Triple Crown.
The two articles frame the same chase from slightly different angles: Yahoo emphasizes Alvarez’s closeness to a modern-era rarity (“since 1967”), while Forbes highlights the more recent historical benchmark of Cabrera’s 2012 win. Neither source indicates that the outcome is decided; instead, both describe Alvarez’s season as ongoing and his statistical lead as the pathway to the honor.
