The most insane thing about this record is managing to lead the league in homers while playing in comerica park. Truly unbelievable but Miggy was a special player.

@Mikey41701 7 лет назад

Not a Tigers fan, but I can't wait to tell my future children about the greatness of Miguel Cabrera. One of my favorite players to watch.

@drw4ever57 7 лет назад

Mike Dilullo and you can tell them that he did it without steroids

@GuamGrrl 7 лет назад

+Drew Steele Thank you!!! So few people are willing to point that out! Obviously we Tigers fans are, but it is important, it matters. He also did it with honor and without ego or the desire for glory. Miggy is amazing.

@inflameslp311 7 лет назад

I love watching his fan interactions too. Being likeable is just icing on the cake for a guy as talented as he is, but it's much more enjoyable to watch a guy like him succeed.

@psychobilly09 4 месяца назад

So difficult regardless of the league or skill level such is the game of baseball. To do it mlb is a centurian feat

@AbleAnderson 2 года назад

I honestly think this is in so many ways more impressive than 73 HR's. This is insane. To hit that many HR's, RBI's, and hit around .330, it's just crazy. Hitting .330 in a season is so unbelievably hard and he did it in a year where he led the league in HR's and RBI's. I don't know if we'll see a season like this anytime soon

@Nhamp2000 2 года назад

I doubt it. The approach to hitting has changed so drastically, it's nothing but pull hitting and launch angle. Miggy came up with 3000 plus ways to beat the shift, including 500 plus of those hits going yard, by going everywhere. That's how you beat the shift. He is one of the last great ballplayers that I actually stopped what I was doing to watch him hit. Plus, he's still a big, goofy kid who loves to play the game and interact with fans during games. Who does that? Miggy. It's his world and we're just living in it. So glad the Tigers traded for him.

@wyssmaster Год назад

RBI is an irrelevant stat in terms of individual evaluation. Would you rather have a guy who batted 1.000 on the season with 100 home runs, but hit nothing but solo shots and literally never had anyone on base ahead of him, or a guy who hit 0.000 but drove in a runner with a sacrifice every single plate appearance?

@DrBeef216 9 лет назад

Miggy and Pujols are definitely the successors to Frank Thomas as the best hitters in baseball that weren't ever linked to drugs.

@uknowwho4235 9 лет назад

People try saying he was on roids or something once he won the triple crown and it's sick how people can't accept that someone did something great. He obviously didn't. He's a big strong guy. I agree with your statement 100%

@DrBeef216 8 лет назад

Thomas had slightly higher career slashline #s and higher career counting #s, and he also put up some of his best years before MLB expansion. He led the AL numerous times in OPS. Bagwell never did. Thomas is the better hitter.

@williamsnyder5616 8 лет назад

As a long-time Tigers fan---but also as a great baseball fan---I think one of the great moments in this video was when Miguel was taken off the field in Kansas City, having clinched the Triple Crown---and the Royals fans, who didn't much too much to cheer about that year, still gave him a standing ovation.

@polishtheturdmickelson5473 7 лет назад

@bend757 10 лет назад

miggy plays in a huge ballpark too. chris davis plays in a tiny stadium in baltimore. if miggy was an oriole he would have had 50 homers in 2013

@jordanalberto5550 9 лет назад

54. Chris Davis had 53.

@elcunado2926 7 лет назад

Ben D and if Davis wasn't on PEDs. They're not steroids but they help you focus and improve awareness. If miggy was on that stuff he would have had more homers every year of his career. More than half the battle is squaring the ball up. If you hit the sweet spot you could be dee Gordon and send that ball on a line out of the park.

@johnshogskins4443 6 лет назад

Yes, but a lower average, less hits and probably less RBIs... Defenders can get to the ball on a smaller field.

@crunchwrapsupreme9372 6 лет назад

Who cares he still won the triple crown!! And a bigger stadium make that achievement way more impressive.

@BBBYpsi 4 года назад

Would have had at least 10 more HR's 20 more ribi's & batted 10 points higher because all the long fly ball fly balls at or near warning track in left center & right center in Comerica park top 5 biggest ball parks.
