Rooker Triple Crown Stats
Rooker's run at a SEC Triple Crown has taken a little hit in the post season, but he should have it wrapped.
After last night he stands at .395/23/82. He still leads BA by .13 over Jonah Todd who is done now that AU is out.
Spanberger is done with Ark out - so no one will catch him on HR. Deichmann has 69 RBI's - but would probably have to make a huge run to a Natty to catch Rook.
Now, the real interesting thing about Rook is if by some miracle he gets hot, and we ride that to Omaha, he could win a National Triple Crown. Rooker is now the national leader in RBI's and only 3 HR behind Hulsizer at Morehead St. The real stretch would be catching Boggess from Morehead who sits at .429. A big 3 games in Red Stick could see Rook back up in the .410-.415 range or higher. It is plausible that he could catch Boggess. I definitely wouldn't count the guy out.
Oh, and he still leads the nation in Slugging and 2B's.
What a season!
