The only category I am concerned with is HRs, just in case Hamilton does something crazy.


He can put up 3 in 3 ABs with the quickness.

He could still lose it in AVG and HR.

Right now his AVG is .3306. If Trout goes 5 for his last 6 he would be at .3309. So it would be really hard for him to lose the batting title if he doesn't play tomorrow.

Hamilton has a game and a half to hit 2 HRs.

It will be interesting to see if they risk his AVG with the hopes that he might tack on another HR.

ETA they play after the Rangers tomorrow, so they will know if he need another HR or not

It would be very un-Tedd Williams like to sit the bench the last game of the season. Williams was hitting .401 going into the last game and ended up 3-3(?) finishing .408

He would catch a bunch of crap by the media etc if he sits

Hamilton is 1-5 and it looks like the only way he could get 2 HRS is if the game goes to extras.

If Miggy sits it would be almost impossible for Trout to pass him

Looks like we get to witness the first triple crown in 45 years

Fly out. I think that may be his only AB.

Trout is 1-2. It would take a miricle for him to pass Cabrera

He is now at .324

Miguel is 0-1 so far and has dropped to .330

He would have to go 0-4 tonight and Trout would need to finish up 3-4 to make it close.
