HBT: Tigers' Cabrera dons Triple Crown

Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera entered tonight?s season finale against the Royals ranking first in the American League in batting average, homers and runs batted in. And that?s right where he?ll finish.

Cabrera went 0-for-2 with a strikeout on Wednesday night?in Kansas City, but he walked off the field to a standing ovation from the Kauffman Stadium crowd when he was lifted as part of a double-switch in the bottom of the fourth inning. Because he had just locked up MLB?s first Triple Crown since 1967.

Cabrera winds up with a .330 batting average, 44 home runs and 139 RBI.

Carl?Yastrzemski, the last Triple Crown winner, hit .326 with 44 homers and 121 RBI in his historical year.

The Angels? Mike Trout will close out 2012 ranking second in batting at .326. Josh Hamilton and Curtis Granderson will wind up tied for second in dingers with 43. And Hamilton finishes second in RBI with 128.

Cabrera and the Tigers now advance to the ALDS, where they?ll take on the A?s beginning Saturday.
