Baseball Records That Will Never Be Broken

There are some records in baseball that will never be broken. Here are some of the most unbreakable records in baseball history

Home run records

There are several home run records that will most likely never be broken. In 2001, Barry Bonds hit 73 home runs which is the current record. Records are made to be broken, but some records are just too difficult to surpass. This is a list of five home run records that will probably never be broken.

1. Most home runs in a Season: 73 by Barry Bonds in 2001
2. Most home runs by a Rookie: 38 by Mark McGwire in 1987
3. Most Grand Slams in a Season: 6 by Travis Hafner in 2006
4. Most Consecutive Games with a home run 8 by Ken Griffey Jr. in 1993
5. Most Home Runs in a Single Month: 30 by Rudy York in August 1937

Pitching records

There are a number of baseball records that will likely never be broken. These records include everything from most hits in a career to most home runs in a season. Pitching records are some of the most unbreakable records in baseball. One such record is for most strikeouts in a season. In 2001, Randy Johnson struck out 372 batters, which is a record that is unlikely to ever be broken. Another unbreakable pitching record is for most consecutive wins in a season. In 1884, Old Hoss Radbourn won an astonishing 59 games, a feat that is unlikely to ever be matched.

Hitting records

There are severalhitting records in baseball that will likely never be broken. These include Babe Ruth’s career home run record of 714, Barry Bonds’s single-season home run record of 73, and Roger Maris’s single-season Home Run record of 61. Additionally, Ichiro Suzuki holds the record for most hits in a single season with 262, and Pete Rose holds the record for most hits in a career with 4,256.

Fielding records

Fielding records are a fundamental Art of Baseball and some of them have stood the test of time. Here are five fielding records that will never be broken.

1. Most Gold Glove Awards 12
Ozzie Smith is the standard by which all other shortstops are measured. He won a record 12 Gold Glove Awards which is the most of any player at any position. Smith was also a 15-time All-Star and a World Series champion.

2. Most putouts in a season: 1,702
In 2007, Minnesota Twins first baseman Justin Morneau had 1,702 putouts, the most by any player in a single season. Morneau was also the American League MVP that year, hitting .321 with 34 home runs and 130 RBIs.

3. Highest career Fielding percentage .9922
Edgardo Alfonzo was one of the best Defensive Players of his generation, and he retired with a .9922 career fielding percentage. That is the highest mark of any player with at least 2,000 games played at third base.

4. Most Games Played at shortstop: 2,583
Cal Ripken Jr. is one of the most iconic players in baseball history and he played an astounding 2,583 games at shortstop during his Hall of Fame career. Ripken is also the holder of many other records, including most consecutive games played (2,632).

5. Most double plays turned: 1,760
Robinson Cano is still active and adding to his impressive resume, but he will never eclipse Omar Vizquel’s record for most double plays turned by a shortstop (1,760). Cano has turned 1,606 double plays in his career thus far.

Base-running records

There are many baseball records that will likely never be broken. Some of these records are for batting, some for pitching, and some are for base-running. This article will focus on base-running records.

One base-running record that is unlikely to ever be broken is Rickey Henderson’s career stolen bases record of 1,406. Henderson was a gifted base-runner who had incredible speed. He also played in an era when stealing bases was more prevalent than it is today. In order to break Henderson’s record, a player would likely have to play in as many games as Henderson did (3,081) and steal over 200 bases in a season, something that has only been done by 7 players in MLB history.

Another base-runningrecord that is unlikely to be broken is Lou Brock’s single season stolen base record of 118, set in 1974. In order to break Brock’s record, a player would likely have to play in over 150 games and steal over 100 bases, something that has only been done by 6 players in MLB history.

Ty Cobb holds the career stolen base percentage record at 89.8%. In order to break Cobb’s record, a player would need to steal at least 400 bases while being caught stealing fewer than 50 times. This is a difficult feat because it requires both a high success rate and a high number of stolen bases.

Finally, the longest individual streak of successful stolen base attempts is held by Vince Coleman who successfully stole 50 consecutive bases without being caught from September 1988 to July 1989. This is an unlikely record to be broken because it requires not only speed and skill but also luck. A player would need to avoid getting caught by the catcher or pitcher on 50 consecutive stolen base attempts, which is a difficult feat even for the best base-runners.

Catcher’s records

There are a number of catcher’s records that will never be broken. One record is for most games caught in a career. The player with the most games caught is Ivan Rodriguez, who played in 2,427 games over 21 seasons.

Another record is for most putouts in a season. The player with the most putouts in a season is John Jaha, who had 1,041 putouts in 1995.

And finally, there is the record for most errors by a catcher in a season. The player with the most errors by a catcher in a season is Franktim Duryea, who had 45 errors in 1887.

Manager’s records

There are few things in baseball more difficult than becoming a Big League manager. Not only do you have to be an excellent strategist and motivator, but you also have to deal with the intense pressure that comes with the job. So it’s no surprise that the record for most wins by a manager is held by one of the greatest strategists and motivators in baseball history Connie Mack

Mack managed the Philadelphia Athletics for 50 years, from 1901 to 1950. During that time, he compiled a record of 3,731 wins and 3,948 losses. That’s an astonishing total of 7,679 wins, which is far more than any other manager in history. In fact, the second-place manager, John McGraw, has just 2,763 wins.

While Mack’s record is safe for now, it’s worth noting that there are a few active managers who could conceivably challenge it someday. Jim Leyland (2,769), Bobby Cox (2,504), and Tony Larussa (2,360) are all within striking distance of McGraw’s total. But they would need to manage for several more years and have a lot of success to even come close to Mack’s record.

So enjoy Connie Mack’s record while you can; it’s likely to stand for a very long time.

Team records

There are a number of team records in baseball that will likely never be broken. One such record is the Seattle Mariners’ 116-win season in 2001. The Mariners finished the season 36 games ahead of the second-place team in their division and had a margin of victory of nearly two runs per game.

Another team record that is unlikely to be broken is the Chicago Cubs’ 128-win season in 1906. The Cubs won their first 12 games of the season and never looked back, finishing 20 games ahead of the second-place team in their division. They also had a margin of victory of nearly two runs per game.

The New York Yankees have two team records that are unlikely to be matched: their 114-win season in 1998 and their 115-win season in 1999. The Yankees won the World Series in both years, cementing their place as one of baseball’s greatest teams ever.

League records

While it is always fun to speculate about which records will never be broken, it is important to remember that any record, no matter how unbreakable it seems, is subject to being shattered. With that said, there are certainly some records in Major League Baseball that seem safe from being broken anytime soon.

Here are some of the most unbreakable records in MLB history:

Babe Ruth’s 714 career home runs Babe Ruth is widely considered to be the greatest baseball player of all time, and his home run record is one that has stood for over 80 years. The closest active player to Ruth’s record is Albert Pujols who currently has 591 career home runs Pujols would need to hit 123 home runs in the next two seasons to tie Ruth’s record, and even if he were able to do so, he would still be more than 20 home runs behind Ruth’s career total.

Cy Young’s 511 career wins: Cy Young is the MLB all-time leader in wins, a record that he has held for over 100 years. The closest active player to Young’s record is CC Sabathia, who currently has 247 wins. Sabathia would need to win 264 games over the next eight seasons to tie Young’s record, and even if he were able to do so, he would still be more than 200 wins behind Young’s career total.

Johnny Vander Meer’s back-to-back no-hitters: Johnny Vander Meer is the only MLB pitcher ever to throw two no-hitters in back-to-back starts. The feat was accomplished in 1938 and remains one of the most unbreakable records in baseball history The closest any pitcher has come to matching Vander Meer’s feat was Chris Bosio, who threw back-to-back no-hitters in 1992 but was not able t0 complete the third no-hitter.

Miscellaneous records

While some baseball records are safe, there are others that will almost certainly never be broken. Here are a few of the most unbreakable records in the sport:

-Most hits in a career: 3,465 by Pete Rose
-Most strikeouts in a season: 1,383 by Nolan Ryan
– Most home runs in a season: 73 by Barry Bonds
– Most years leading league in home runs 12 by Babe Ruth
