There have been 17 seasons with a hitter winning the triple crown. What two players have done it twice?

Rajah for one. The obvious other guess is Cobb, but I don't think so. I think it was Ted WIlliams.

Rogers Hornsby and Ted Williams are correct. Cobb won one.

Followup question:

Out of all of the winners, who had the highest number in each category?

Wild guess, but I'd say Cobb for BA, Gehrig for RBI and HR.
