The Surprising MLB Team That Shattered Records and Still Stuns Fans Today

15. 53-22 (.707) – 1924 Kansas City Monarchs

16. 55-23 (.705) – 1925 Kansas City Monarchs

T-17. 107-45 (.704) – 1907 Chicago Cubs

The defending National League champion Cubs stayed hot to start the 1907 season, just a year after they finished with the best record in MLB history. Their pitching staff led the charge, setting an MLB record (that still stands today) with their 1.73 team ERA. Jack Pfiester led the league with a 1.15 ERA, and four out of the next five spots on the list were held by the Cubs – all of which were sub-1.70. The Cubs defeated the Tigers 4-1 (including a tie) in the World Series, redeeming themselves for their 4-2 loss to the White Sox the previous season. Their phenomenal pitching was able to hold Ty Cobb to just four hits in 20 at-bats and only gave up six runs the entire series.
