Default Robinson

Many collectors I talk to at shows do not realize that Robinson had some shot at back to back triple crowns.

He was injured with a knee to the head from Al Weis sliding into second base in late June 1967 and was leading the league in batting and rbi's and was one home run behind Killebrew. He had relinquished the home run lead that week.

If he was not injured and missed time and did not feel the affects of the head injury it would have interesting to see if he could have pulled back to back triple crowns.
