The 1906 Chicago Cubs went 116-36 (.763), which is the record for wins (tied by the 2001 Seattle Mariners) and winning percentage since the schedule was fixed at 150 games or more.
Of course, being the Cubs, they went on to lose the World Series to the crosstown White Sox, 4 games to 2.
(There are a handful of better winning percentages buried in the deeps of time -- e.g., the 1876 Chicago White Stockings (now Cubs) went 52-14, a .788 W% -- but those were the days of much shorter official schedules and overall looser standards of business conduct.)

511 wins by Cy Young. 511!!!!!! Tommy Glavine got 300 yesterday and on Sportscenter they were talking about how there's a good chance that he's the last pitcher to ever get 300 wins. Imagine that that's still over 200 wins short of the record!!! The second place person on the all time wins list is Walter Johnson with 417!!! That's almost 100 less!!! A pitcher will need to average over 25 wins per season over a 20 year career to get 500!!! Imagine last season no pitcher won over 20 games!!! This record is just unbreakable.

Best Record:
Beers drunk during a 9 inning game -
Mike R. of Chicago Illinois. During a Sox - Cleveland game in 2005, he sat in the Scout Seats - beer was free. In the 16 oz cups was Miller Lite.
He went on the drink 16 during the game. On the way home, we stopped to let him yack it up. He did not. He holds the record for best drinking at a game ever!

You can't really name a "best record". Comparing some of them is pretty much apples and oranges. Most career strikeouts is probably the prettiest for pitchers, but there may be better pitchers who don't play as many seasons, and so don't get the record. Same with most batters' records. The famous homerun records of 755 and 61 are nice, but they don't mean their the best.
In my opinion, the best batter's record is overall OBP, since hits are important, and if you keep getting walked, pitchers are afraid of you. For pitchers, I'd say career ERA, for obvious reasons

I think it would have to be Sam Crawfords 309 triples i mean come on that's unreal such speed. Alos Ricky Hendersons 1406 steals that beats lou brock with 938 so about 500 steals quite amazing isn't it?

2001 Seattle Mariners I think had the best ever AL at 116-46

DiMaggio's streak was amazing. That said, there was a lot of luck involved in that. I think Nolan Ryan's no-hitters record is incredible. To think that he was that amazing that often is astounding.

Number of games played without taking steriods. It hasnt come out yet but It will.
It use to be most home runs, but I dont think anybody thinks it is anymore, until A-Rod takes it back.
