There are triple crowns for hitters and pitchers. The hitter's triple crown is won by the player that hits the most home runs, has the best batting average, and has the most RBIs. This is rarely done and the last time it was done, prior to the 2008 season, was the 1967 season. The pitcher's triple crown is won by the pitcher that has the most wins, most strikeouts, and lowest ERA. The pitcher's triple crown has been won six times in the past 11 seasons but, prior to that, was also a pretty rare occurrance.
Twice, once in the NL in 1961 and again in the AL in 1966.

Boston Red Sox left fielder Carl Yastrzemski won the Triple Crown in 1967. Yaz hit 326 with 44 home runs and 121 runs batted in. Frank Robinson won the Triple Crown the year before. The Triple Crown has been achieved 13 times in the "Modern Era" (since 1900), and twice before. Rogers Hornsby and Ted Williams are the only men to do it twice. People also refer to the "Pitcher's Triple Crown" if a pitcher leads the league in wins, strikeouts, and ERA. This has been more common, most recently achieved by the Twins' Johan Santana in 2006.
