Set by Richard "night train" lane at 14 picks during his rookie season in 1952. With modern rules and schemes I just don't think anyone ever gets close.

This is truly the only breakable record in sports.

Pitchers back then would throw both games of a double-header.

It was unheard of for a pitcher to not pitch an entire game.

Cy Young pitched 7,356 innings. The active leader is 39 year old Zack Grienke with 3389.
