Bettors can now wager on whether Aaron Judge or Shohei Ohtani will accomplish a rare baseball feat that has only been seen once since 1967.
FanDuel posted the same odds for each slugger to win the Triple Crown. Ohtani and Judge are each +870 with the “NO” odds at -2200. The Triple Crown is when one hitter leads his respective league (AL or NL) in home runs, RBI and batting average.
Ohtani, the Dodgers DH, leads the NL in homers, sits second in average and third in RBI. The Yankees right fielder leads the AL in homers and RBI, while sitting fourth in average.
In 2012, Miguel Cabrera of the Detroit Tigers achieved that distinction in the American League. Prior to that, it was Carl Yastrzemski in 1967 for the Boston Red Sox.
