Does OOTPB2006 keep track or make news of Triple Crown winners?

If not this would be a nice addition to see in the news section and in the players history.

Completely off topic but it relates to Triple Crown winners. I had never had one in the years and years of playing OOTP. One year though this one guy was leading in all 3 categories up till the last day. He had a 4 RBI lead on the next guy. Wouldn't you know it, the other guy drives in 6 on the last day of the season to kill his Triple Crown bid.

I can't recall having one either, well outside of the deadball era that is. For me its either a BA slump the final month or an injury that prevents him from leading in HR or RBI or both.

Edit: back to the first question...I'm not sure since I haven't had a triple crown winner in 2006 but have a hunch it doesn't still.

I know in 6.5 they made mention of it in the MVP story but I have yet to see a triple crown in 2006 although Barry Bonds has come close 10 straight years in my historical replay.

4 more homeruns and I could have answered this question

I haven't seen any mention of it and I've seen several guys win the TC. It's not a common occurence, but I've run several 100+ year sims so far.

If it's not in, I hope they'll add this.

I have a sneaking suspicion this may end up in a third party application.
