I have a question:
Does Matt Kemp need to be the sole leader in HR, AVG, RBI to
be a Triple Crown winner or can he be tied for the lead in any
of these categories to qualify?
I'm thinking the latter but want to know for sure.

I would agree that ties would work. the dodgers may also have th triple crown winner in Kershaw. Most wins, lowest ERA and most Strike outs.

If I recall correctly, Carl Yastrzemski, when he won his 1967 AL Triple Crown, tied in one of the three categories, and he is credited with a Triple Crown.

Correct. Tied with Killebrew at 44 Homeruns.
