5 most unbreakable records in MLB history
Barry Bonds hits 71st home run. The saying "records are made to be broken" is a very true statement when it comes to sports. However, the most hallowed milestones in history are as close to immortality as it gets. That's mainly because Major League Baseball, specifically hitting, is almost indisputably the most difficult profession to succeed in. Ted Williams openly stated, "Hitting a baseball is the single most difficult thing to do in sports." The evidence speaks to that truth. Give me another sport where 70% failure across the board equals legendary success, and I'll recant. Bearing that in mind, here are five of the most unbreakable records in MLB and professional sports history.#5 Pete Rose s 4 256 career MLB hits
San Diego Padres v Cincinnati Reds To amass more than 4,000 hits, longevity is only one of the many abilities you must possess. had longevity, consistency, and raw ability in one legendary package over the course of his 24-year career. Rose's nickname of Charlie Hussle accurately exemplifies the passionate work ethic it took Rose to accomplish such a timeless record. Rose's hits record has stood for more than 25 years with no prospects in sight to challenge that milestone.#4 Barry Bonds 73 home runs in a single season

Mr. Bonds was lucky to see even a single pitch in the strike zone throughout the course of the season. However, he seemed to crush every pitch that came into it. To surpass Bonds' 73-mark, a player would have to average more than 12 HRs per month. Aaron Judge has an outside chance at this feat, considering Bonds had 39 at the All-Star break. However, history indicates this record could be nearly unbreakable.#3 Batting 400 in a single season
Ted Williams tribute on July 22, 2002 The last time a player batted .400 was in 1941 by none other than the legendary (.406). Joe DiMaggio set a record that year as well. It's nothing short of amazing that the two most hallowed achievements in MLB history occurred in the same season. 1941 was a special time for baseball and the country, while the war was going on Ted Williams hit over .400 for the season and Joe DiMaggio hit in 56 consecutive games. 80 years later and nobody has done either one since.1941 was a special time for baseball and the country, while the war was going on Ted Williams hit over .400 for the season and Joe DiMaggio hit in 56 consecutive games. 80 years later and nobody has done either one since. "Ted Willoams hit over .400 for the season and Joe DiMaggio hit in 56 consecutive games. 80 years alter nobody has done either one since." - Miles Commodore Yes, hitting .400 is considered more of an achievement than a record. However, the scarcity of this feat has made the prospect of a .400 batting average almost mythical. No hitter has even flirted with .400 since Tony Gwynn, whom Ted Williams mentored, hit .394 in the lockout-shortened 1994 season. Like DiMaggio's hitting streak, the last time someone hit .400 is 81 years ago and counting.#2 Joe DiMaggio s 56-game hitting streak
