The Greatest All-Time Baseball Record Book

This week, I read the Greatest "All-Time Baseball Record Book" by Joseph L. Reichler.  In this book, there are thousands of records, from the simplest of records, like most home runs, to the most awkward of records, like most double plays by a second baseman in a year.  This book contains not only records, but pictures with captions as well.  The book was published in 1981, so it is very interesting to see how outdated the records are.  With all of these incredibly irrelevant records in the book, it makes you realize how much information is recorded and kept from each Major League Baseball game.

thats must be cool to see all of the records from then to more recent times.
