Woodson hitting .444
New NL RBI and Runs Scored records
New AL and NL Hits records
New AL Rookie records in Hits, HR and RBI all by three different rookies
New major league ERA record
First player to ever win 30+ games, and there were two of them!
3 guys got their 2000th hit
The 2nd player to top 500 SB's
The first two players in history to ever score 1000 runs
The first pitcher to ever record his 2000th K
The White Sox and Cardinals set franchise records for wins, and the Reds tied their best record
All this plus a very exciting World Series (even if it was just 5 games)... Wow, what a great year!!!
