Baseball's Most Unbreakable Feats

More than any other sport, baseball is a game of numbers. Statistics and records help measure the greats of the game against their peers--against generations--and this ever evolving record book is what helps give baseball renewed life. But not every mark in the game is destined to change, for there are a few that are indeed unbreakable. Host Roger Clemens explores 10 seemingly untouchable baseball achievements, including Cy Young's 511 career wins; Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hit streak, Rickey Henderson's 130 stolen bases, and Cal Ripken Jr's 2,632 consecutive games played.
