The Triple Crown has to be the most prestigious award to win in all of sports. Baseball hating fools will criticize it on here, but that sh-t is out of this world difficult to get. You can have a perfect season and not win it. Leader, in batting average, HR's, and RBI's. That's tough.
He can not make any mistakes though. Hamilton is right behind his ass, with 1 HR shy of tying him. Granderson, Dunn, Encarnacion are all 2-3 Homers away from him. Trout and Mauer aren't too far behind in batting average, and I think Miguel Cabrera pretty much has the RBI category on lock down, no one's catching him at this point. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up leader in RBI's and BA, but tied or fell short in HR's.
