Not even remotely true. if you watch the clip you can clearly hear the commentator say it's the Indians second in as many years.
Might be 82 years since the last game ending TP tho.

it's my understanding it's the
1st time for a game ending unassisted triple play in 82 years, 2nd game ending unassisted triple play, and 3rd unassisted triple play ever

its really not even that impressive, it was alot of luck. In fact when you look at him even he looks surprised that he caught it, and he doesn't quite catch the magnitude of it until a few seconds afterwards.

of course it doesn't look impressive, unassisted has to be a gift

I think "assisted" triple plays are much more impressive. Shows excellent teamwork and coordination with a hint of luck.
