Yes, 1967 was the last HITTING Triple Crown with Yaz
Funny thing is Frank Robinson had the Triple Crown the Year before
Johan Santana got the pitching Triple Crown Last season (2006)

The laast hitting triple crown winner was Carl Yastrzemski in 1967 with a .326 average, 44 homeruns (tied for league lead in homeruns with Harmon, Min.), and 121 RbI's.
The last pitching triple crown winner was Johan Santana in 2006 with a 2.77 ERA, 19 wins (tied for league in wins with Chien-Ming Wang, NY with 19 wins), and 245 strikeouts.

1967 Carl Yastrzemski. He won the MVP that year.
In 1968, Yaz hit .301 - again winning the Batting Title, giving him the distinction of having the lowest batting average of any Batting Champion

Yazoo, 1967, though his HR title was shared with Harmon Killebrew. Eff Robinson won the last free-and-clear TC in the AL in 1966. I think Mantle's monster year in 1956 is the last time a player has led both leagues in all three TC categories.

Yaz turned the trick in '67 although he was tied for HR lead with The Killer if I remember correctly.
