133:

How about I go back all the way to July 2nd, 2022, an entire 12 days ago.

Shane McClanahan set a major-league record while pitching seven innings of one-run ball in the Rays' 6-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays during the first game of a Saturday doubleheader. He became the only pitcher in MLB history with 19 earned runs or fewer and at least 133 strikeouts thru 16 starts of a season.

(Whoever takes the next one should have a pretty easy go if they check the 1899 season, lol)

Default I'll Bite

The Cleveland Spiders lost 134 games in 1899. Could be hard to beat, but the Angels will try.

I appreciate the increased understanding of the rules of this thread. It was a little rocky for awhile, but compliance has improved significantly.

In 1920, Babe Ruth set the 20th century record for RBIs in a season with 135. It didn't last long–he broke it himself the following year.

During the 19th century, HOFer Roger Connor hit 136 * Home Runs during his career (1880 - 1897).

* Note some say 136....others say 138.

Continuing with 19th Century numbers......

In 1899, Ed Delahanty drove in 137 runs to lead the National League (NL). Also, he led the NL with a .410 BA and 238 hits.
This was his 12th year in the Major Leagues, and his performance would improve every year as he aged. This is remarkable
as only a few Baseball players have achieved this feat. An example is Babe Ruth, whose performance improved as he aged.

Default 138 - a FAUX record

138 is the record set by Ty Cobb for the most times caught stealing at the conclusion of the 1922 season.

However caught stealing was not an official stat early in his career and his record of 138 includes 11 seasons when he stole bases but was never caught.

He was fleet afoot but not that fast.

On July 18th, 1921, Babe Ruth hit the 139rd home run of his career. This moved Babe Ruth in front of Roger Connor as the all-time MLB home run leader. As mentioned above, Connor's home run total was thought to be 131, then 136, until 138 was figured to be the correct number in the 70s, so no one knew at the time that he had broken the record on this day.

Hi Chad

Thanks for clarifying Roger Connor's total HR number.
