it looked like he was gonna win up until the last mile or so oh well

there are a few hitters who i think have a chance to make a legitimate run at TC in baseball.

Albert Pujols
Manny Ramirez

and that's really it. i would say vladimir, but only way would be if it were a slow homerun year or he got more power than usual

If you look at the amount of money that baseball players get paid, that should not suprise anyone.

The Belmost stakes was merely a million bucks. I am sure that most NYY players get a lot more dough when they go home at the end of a season.

Think of it: Smarty Jones has the fourth highest winning total in all of horse racing history at 5.5 million USD. I am sure that there are plenty of players that earn more than that in a single season playing baseball.

Since there is more moeny to be made in baseball, just by running a team and winning, there are more resources available for each player and more people that are intested in becoming baseball players. Consequently, there is a much higher average ability than in horse racing. Nonetheless, there hasn't been a TC in a while in racing....

Actually drizz, from what I remember seeing... Smarty Jones made over $7 million

greg, exactly. there is actually an article on espn.com talking about how hard it is for a baseball player to get the triple crown.

he took the leaders in the three tc categories for the last 8 seasons. in the national league, the avg was .365-56 HRs-146 RBIs. in the american league, .350-52-149. in the history of baseball, only 1 player has reached those marks in one season: Jimmie Foxx in 1932.

but man... if that ever does happen in baseball...
