| Publisher Description: Henry Aaron's pursuit of Babe Ruth's home run record captivated the baseball world. So did Cal Ripken's effort to outlast Lou Gehrig's ironman streak and Rickey Henderson's attempt to swipe Lou Brock's stolen-base throne. Here are pro baseball's greatest records and the stories of the players who have held, chased, and broken them. |
