| Summary: |
More than any other sport, baseball is a game of numbers. Statistics and records help measure the greats of the game against their peers--against generations--and this ever-evolving record book is what helps give baseball renewed life. But not every mark in the game is destined to change, for there are a few that are indeed unbreakable. |
