[edit] Trivia and additional records
While this topic is off to a good start, more records need to be put in there. --Hourick 12:54, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
- I just added subsections of career and single-season pitching records for the live-ball era. IMHO, the post-1920 era is so fundamentally different from what came before it that separate records are needed to put that era in perspective. — Dale Arnett 05:27, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
- It has improved quite a bit with just the layout. I'm apprehensive about the trivia section. Don't know if it deserves it's own article (HIGHLY organized, mind you) or to keep it here and have it sorted and cited. I'm starting to lean that it deserves it's own article, though with a link on here.--Hourick 13:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
- This (renamed "Noteworthy Accomplishments") has gotten quite long now. I suggest we move it to a new article. Most of these are not really records anyway. I mean, how can you break the record of "oldest-born player"? Or "first batter in the major leagues"? Also, these are strongly in need of references; the real records can easily be verified, but these can't.--BillFlis 21:24, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- OK, this section is really long now. Time to move to new article. Question: What do we call it?--BillFlis 00:03, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
- Wouldn't have the slightest clue as how to go about. This is such a mishmash of information that the only thing that I can think of is to split the facts into the articles of the appropriate player and provide a LINK to that particular article to show who it is. This would be a highly unlikely solution, I would imagine. --Hourick 00:41, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
- I'm thinking "Baseball trivia". You like? Also, I would like to put back the section headings I added previously: Home runs, Grand slams, Perfect games, Triple crown, etc. Comments?--BillFlis 01:09, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Catching records
[edit] Catching no-hitters
I'd like to see added this one: the record for catching no-hitters. It appears from the following page that the record is four. Varitek just reached three. See http://bb_catchers.tripod.com/catchers/catchnoh.htm
