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

14. 110-44 (.714) – 1927 New York Yankees

It’s safe to say that with a lineup nicknamed “Murderer’s Row,” the 1927 Yankees did some damage. They dominated the league in almost every batting category, including their 158 home runs (50 more than the second-best team), .307 team batting average, 908 RBIs, and whopping 376 run differential. That year, Babe Ruth shattered the MLB record with 60 home runs – hitting more than 12 entire teams. AL MVP Lou Gehrig finished second with 47 dingers and led the majors with 173 RBIs. In terms of pitching, the Yankees were stellar, with a league-low 3.20 ERA and starter Waite Hoyt tied for most wins (22) in the AL. Led by manager Ed Barrow, the Yankees swept the Pirates in the World Series, taking home their second win.
