I know things were different then, but if we're talking about Cy Young's 511 wins as untouchable, then Ol' Hoss Radbourn's 1884 season makes Cy's total look mundane.
A 59-12 record, 678 innings and 441 strikeouts - even for that era those numbers are insane!
For Facebook users, someone posts as Ol' Hoss, commenting on sports of today. Some of the posts are hysterical.
