According to Sarah Langs, Shane Bieber is the first Cleveland pitcher to win the Triple Crown since Bob Feller. The only difference being that Feller’s was American League only, while Bieber leads MLB.

A crown! He's wearing a crown!!!!!!!

Bieber is the 2nd pitcher in Indians history to win a pitching Triple Crown of any kind, along with Bob Feller in 1940 — but Feller's was just AL, not leading all of MLB https://t.co/EcoQWGkjSM
