I was close....
Sadaharu Oh had a 22 year career
His career consisted of 868 home runs, 2,786 hits, 2,170 runs batted in, 1,967 runs, 2,390 walks, and a slugging percentage of .634. His lifetime batting average was .301.

The unofficial record is 962 by ***** League catcher Josh Gibson. The reason it is unofficial is because the ***** Leagues didn't always keep stats in the greatest fashion in fact, they were notoriously bad at it. However, the official Baseball Encyclopedia backs those numbers. It is also said that he hit an unfathomable .517 and an amazing 84 homeruns in seperate single seasons. These numbers were posted long before Ted Williams hit .407 and Roger Maris launched 61. However, being that he played his career in the ***** Leagues, his numbers aren't in the MLB books.

756 is the MLB record in the US. Barry Bonds hit that last night. Check out the featured article on this website about the kid who caught it.
