Only 16 players have won the MLB Triple Crown
A player is said to win the Triple Crown in a given season if he leads his league in batting average, home runs and RBIs. No player has won the Triple Crown in both leagues. The only players to win the Triple Crown more than once were Rogers Hornsby, who won the NL Triple Crown in 1922 and 1925, and Ted Williams, who won the AL Triple Crown in 1942 and 1947. Some people recognize a pitching "Triple Crown" (league leader in wins, ERA and strikeouts), but no player has won that in both leagues either. However, two pitchers with the same last name have won, one in each league: Walter Johnson in the American League in 1913, 1918 and 1924, and Randy Johnson in the National League in 2002.
Sweden itself has no national flower; however, there are provinces in Sweden. Each of these provinces have individual flowers to represent them.
The races in the Canadian Triple Crown are the Queen's Plate, the Prince of Wales Stakes, and the Breeders' Stakes. They are similar to their American counterparts in that each race is run over the same distance: Queen's Plate/Kentucky Derby, 1 1/4 miles; Prince of Wales/Preakness, 1 3/16 miles; Breeders'/Belmont, 1 1/2 miles. The main difference between the Canadian Triple Crown and the American Triple Crown is that in America the races are all run over dirt courses. In Canada they are run over 3 different surfaces: Polytrack, dirt and turf (grass).
The Triple Crown, or respectively the Kentucky Derby, The Preakness, and The Belmont Stakes, are exclusively for three-year-old Thoroughbreds. Because the distance increases with each race it is harder for the horse to complete The Triple Crown. Last winner was 'Affirmed' in 1978, he was euthanized at the age of twenty six after an injury to his pastern caused him to suffer from laminitis. And actually, most of the horses that have run these races live well into their teens and many lived well into their thirties.
It takes place at the Tomb Of The Unknown Warrior. Each country has one to represent the first killed solider in battle. They lay a ring of poppy flowers on the tomb. Poppy flowers were found when, in the trenches, people bled and from that blood, poppy flowers grew.
