Aaron Judge’s Pursuit of the AL Hitting Triple Crown
Aaron Judge is having another MVP-worthy season, dominating the American League in home runs and RBIs. However, his bid for the AL Hitting Triple Crown faces a significant challenge—his .333 batting average. While Judge leads the league with 51 homers and 122 RBIs, he trails Kansas City's Bobby Witt Jr. (.343) in batting average . With a tougher schedule ahead for Witt, Judge has a shot at closing the gap, but he’ll need a strong finish to complete the rare Triple Crown achievement in 2024.

Marcell Ozuna’s Chase for the NL Hitting Triple Crown
Marcell Ozuna is putting together an impressive season with the Atlanta Braves, leading the National League in batting average at .308. He also tops the RBIs (98) board and sits just behind Shohei Ohtani (41) in the home run race with 37. Ozuna’s consistent performance at the plate makes him a serious contender for the NL Hitting Triple Crown. However, with strong competition from Ohtani and Luis Arráez (.305) in batting average, Ozuna will need to maintain his pace and capitalize on the Braves’ remaining games to secure this prestigious title.

Shohei Ohtani’s Bid for the NL Hitting Triple Crown
Shohei Ohtani continues to make history, this time as a contender for the National League Hitting Triple Crown. Leading the league with 41 home runs, Ohtani is also second in RBIs with 94. However, his .294 batting average trails a handful of players, putting him in a challenging position to claim the Triple Crown. With the Dodgers fighting for postseason positioning, Ohtani’s performance in the final stretch of the season will be crucial. If he can boost his average and maintain his power numbers, Ohtani has a shot at adding another historic achievement to his resume.

Tarik Skubal’s Quest for the AL Pitching Triple Crown
Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal is on the brink of achieving something special—the American League Pitching Triple Crown. With a league-best 2.58 ERA, Skubal leads the AL in both strikeouts and wins, making him a strong Cy Young contender. His closest competition comes from Houston’s Ronel Blanco and Kansas City’s Cole Ragans, but Skubal's consistency has kept him at the top. Despite the Tigers' slim postseason chances, Skubal’s easy remaining schedule gives him a clear path to securing the Triple Crown, making him the favorite as the season winds down.
