What is the record for a single season in major league baseball for wins all time?

The Mariners are still within reach of the all-time team wins record. The 1906 Cubs' 116 wins were done in fewer games so the winning percentage record will remain intact.\n\nThe record for a 162-game schedule is 114 by the '98 Yankees. The Mariners (111-45) have six games left to reach either total.\n\nSeattle already has set the record for road wins in a season (57), previously held by the 1971 A's. They will fall short of the home wins record held by the 1961 Yankees (65).

Ricky Henderson with 130\n\nNL record is 110 by Vince Coleman (also the rookie record)\n\nVince Coleman also stole 100 bases 3 years in a row (record)\n\nLou Brock Stole 50 bases 12 years in a row (record)\n\nFinally Ty Cobb 8 stolen bases in 1912 (record for steals of Home Plate in a year).

I think the record was held by the 1939 NY Yankees an it was 7 now is being broken by the amazing NY Mets 2006 version to make it 8.

Runs Batted In. Most in a season is Hack Wilson of the Cubs with 190!

A lot comes to mind.\n\nDiMaggio's hitting streak\nAaron Home Run Record\nThe Lakers' 33-game winning streak\nSecretariat's domination of the Triple Crown\nOJ's 2000-rushing yard season\nRocky Marciano's Boxing Record\nThe Miracle on Ice in the Olympics

A lot of people say Cy Young's career wins but I say his career complete games.  He has 749 complete games.  The active leader is Roger Clemens with 118.  Since 1990 the highest total by any player in a season is 15.  It would take 50 season of 15 complete games to match Cy Young.  It will be a long time before anyone even approaches that record.\n\nAnother record is Johnny Vandermeer's two consecutive no-hitters.  To break the record would take 3 consecutive no-hitters. \n\nBut Cy Young's record will not be broken as long as baseball is played under current conditions.

In the strike shortened season of 1994 (112 games) Baltimore Orioles had only 57 errors.  In a full 162 game season it was the 2003 Seattle Mariners with 65.   And to cover all the bases (so to speak)  the 1999 New York Mets had the best fielding percentage of a 162 game season with a .989 (they actually played a one game play-off so they played a 163 game season)

Yankees. 27 World Series Championships. Mantle, Ruth, Dimaggio, Jeter, A-Rod, Yogi... can't beat their history.

You're referring to the 1927 season.  In 1931 Lou drove in 184 (which is the actual AL record).  A man who hasn't played a game in over 65 years still holds the record, that's why it's so amazing.  When he played baseball was on a 154 game schedule.  That means he averaged 1.2 RBI per game.\n\nThe closest anyone has gotten to that record since 1940 was Manny Ramirez in 1999 with 165 RBI.  Remember that Manny had 8 extra games.  With Lou's average he would have had 193 RBI.\n\nFor a little more amazement, realize that is only the AL record, Hack Wilson holds the All-time record at 191.  There was a one game regular season playoff so Hack played 155 but that is still an average of 1.23\n\nThe all-time RBI record, all-time Wins record and hitting streak will never NEVER be broken.  Pitching is obvious: they pitched more often (once every 3 or 4 games, today we have the 5 man rotation) and they pitched the whole game.  Cy pitched 906 games and 749 of them were complete games.  Only 15 pitchers have more wins than Cy's losses (316) of all time.\n\nDiMaggio's record is just mind boggling.\n\nAnd then we have RBI.  You'd have to put together a dream line-up for it to happen nowadays.  You would need to protect the RBI man with a better slugger behind him.  Also with the specialization of the relief and closer pitchers, many late-inning opportunities for RBI have been stripped away.

This is Craig Biggio's 19th year with Astros.  He is the current player with longest streak.\n\nDon't know if he is the one in history though.
