Vander Meer

What do you consider to be baseball’s unbreakable records?
My own personal choices are both pitching records I don’t think anyone will ever even come close to Cy Young’s 511 career victories. Further, although it’s more a feat than a record, there’s no way Johnny Vander Meer’s back-to-back no-hitters will be eclipsed. Maybe if the sun, the moon, and the stars all align just right, and the baseball Gods are smiling on some pitcher, it might be tied one day…but nobody will eer throw back-to-back-to-back no-hitters.
What are your thoughts?
Great answers so far! I totally agree about Barroid Bonds. His records should be deleted and his name stricken from Total Baseball.
1) 511 victories – pitchers just don’t put in the innings to win this many
2) 75 World Series games played – I’ve always loved this one; Y. Berra holds this record – who can top this?
3) 36 triples (in a season) – that’s a LOT of triples
4) .426 season avg – just don’t think this is gonna happen
5) 56 game hitting streak – I remember Rose going after it and it seemed like it took forever – just to get 12 games short
