With some luck (and good relief pitching for the A's), he'll only have one more at bat, hopefully a k.

I hope Cabrera takes a break tonight, rests the ankle a bit.

I just read the history of the triple crown over the weekend, it was always tough to win, but with all the new pitching styles, specialized hitters, etc. it hasn't been won since 1967, and before that only 13 players have won it. That some people (sports writers and some fans) are diminishing this as a milestone is incomprehensible.

I'd say it's a good bet he'll get a K.

Hamilton just struck out in the top of the 8th. I’d say that’s it. Cabby wins the triple crown.
