- From 2002-2004, Eric Gagne had one of the greatest stretches for any pitcher in MLB history. This included becoming the last reliever to win the Cy Young and setting an unbreakable record along the way. That record saw Eric Gagne save 84 straight games in a row, one of the most unbreakable records in sports. In this video, we cover Gagne's streak and his career with the Dodgers, Rangers, Red Sox, and Brewers.

Gange 100% is what that one uncle wouldve been if he didnt get injured 😭
The best part is that Gagne means “to win” in French
Caught a game with Eric Gagne as a kid.... Will never forget his run to the mound. Reminded me of a WWE entrance... BADASS!
The correct answer is cal ripken's streak
Gibson won games 4 and 7 in '64. Games 1, 4 and 7 in '67. Games 1 and 4 in '68. SEVEN CONSECUTIVE WORLD SERIES COMPLETE GAME VICTORIES. Who's breaking that record?
Peak Gagne is the best pitcher in baseball for 1 inning ever. And it's not even close.
"GAME OVER"
Sorry Ripken is the most unbreakable record.
Ironically he broke the record set by Lou Gerhig and it was called the unbreakable record. Given time and anyone trying is doable. This many saves... yeah that's not happening and every reliever is actually trying.
@@laartworksaves are a useless stat. No one will ever break cal record. Players are betches todat
@@laartwork you understand this isnt save in a year right? being successful in save situations for two year straight vs playing every game for 16+ years straight.
It's actually pronounced GAG-in.
I hate it when my friends that are Yankees fans say “Mariano Rivera mad every game for the Yankees only 8 innings🤓🤓🤓” the real guy that made games 8 innings was prime gange
Difference is Mariano didn't need to juice himself up on roids
Not to sound like Mr. Get Off My Lawn, but when my son said "You probably don't think saves should be a stat", I replied "I don't think relief pitcher should be a position.". By the way, my lawn is real grass.
So glad you threw in the backyard baseball at the end. He was always my pitcher on that game
He still throws like 86-88 at the better part of 50. He was on a momentum video folding Eric Sim
PEDs were taken mainly for recovery and durability. Steroids allows the player to train harder for longer and to feel optimal at game time for every game. It doesn't strike you that a pitcher would benefit from these effects just as much as a hitter would? They certainly do and did. Gagne had a tremendous career but to try and downplay his PED use because he was a pitcher as if it DIDN'T have a significant impact on his career is disingenuous and displays a poor understanding of PED use in professional sports.
I imagine pitchers benefit even more greatly because I don’t think anyone is ruining their arms or shoulders swinging a baseball bat and running bases. Having your arm be able to recover faster as well as likely endure more punishment before wearing out.
Learned English from Kena a and Kel? He has good taste in TV shows too.
PED’s helps pitchers throw harder for longer and recover quicker….
Your video quality is way better than your sub count would suggest. Keep this up I really believe your channel will catch on
4:55 SV:55*
rite?
Cy Young, Nolan Ryan, and Cal Ripken Jr. would like a word
All 4 seem unbreakable. Bonds walks and Henderson steals . Rose hits. All seem out of reach. Gagne save is the most likely to be broken. Only requires 3 amazing seasons. The rest require 20 years of dominance
@@kenw2225Ichiro beat Rose if you count njp. No one will beat Ripken.
Cy Young's total wins is basically impossible to beat. A pitcher would have to average a little over 25 wins per year for 20 years.
@@kenw2225it's not just 3 amazing seasons though, it's about being PERFECT over that stretch of time
@@Jack-jx6lnhe wasn't perfect. he gave up runs. can come in with a 3 run lead and give up 2 no problem. it's.impressive but nowhere near the others mentioned
I believe Fernando Tatis' 2 grand-slams in one inning is an even more unbreakable record.
Off the same pitcher! I actually think hitting 2 grand slams in the same inning will happen again some day. The way the game's going/evolved. But hitting 2 grand slams off the same pitcher (or giving up two to the same person in the same inning) will never happen. Anyway...I agree with you man.
We should all thank Paul LoDuca for providing the roids to first Gagne then Beltre, Izturis, and Cora a couple years after resulting in their first playoff run together which ironically LoDuca only got be a part of half of it due to a puzzling trade. I think the dodgers caught wind of what he was doing and being the boyscout franchise they are they traded him. I’d like them to stop being soft and hire Cora as manager and have Gagne and lo Duca as coaches. Maybe they’d actually win a title
Most unbreakable?? BS! Lol. It’s no small feat, but I do believe that CY YOUNG’s 792 COMPLETE GAMES Pitched might be a tad more difficult to catch.
Bro is tripping
Cy young was pitching against plumbers bruh😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you are comedy fr
@@thomaschamberlain1398
Whitey Ford delivered packages for UPS. Mickey Mantle worked in mines. You wanna stay stuck on stupid?
@@thomaschamberlain1398really 2 comments? Way to collect yr thoughts. How about cal ripken? More importantly, you actually think saves mean shit? Most pointless stat ever
and Mariano is still better :D
Better career but for these 3 seasons Gagne was the best he wasn’t blowing any saves. Rivera had a tendency to meltdown in big games
Dig the music, and analysis. Dont remember Gagne having an accent, which he’d almost have to learning engrish so late - or that might be his most impressive feat.
A ton of PH D’s, this guy used a ton of chemicals and was crap once he was off they
In 2026 a reliever will win the cy young award
I'm guessing that HGH would help a streak along.
Lol he was juiced on steroids
Manson miller, hold my beer
yeah, pretty good streak. pretty good record. as I recall, during the streak, he was brought in to finish the ALL-STAR GAME with a save and things came a loose and he lost the game.
No, that was before the streak.
I'd say Fred Loney 17 inning no hitter is the most unbreakable
Roki Sasaki did it in Japan
@@Dr.Frankensteen in one game?
i literally cannot find anything on that
@@Proudmid00stoyotacamryowner Not in one game. Didn't realize we're talking one game. One minor correction is that it's Toney, not Loney. It also didn't happen in the MLB
@@smoceany9478 It's Fred Toney and it happened in 1909
Drugs😂
REALLY LOL....AMAZING FEAT DO DOUBT....BUT VEERRRRRYYYYYYY FAR FROM THE MOST UNBREAKABLE FEAT....LOL
It is possible to break it though. There are records that just are untouchable, because pitchers used to throw more often and for longer. So the single season and career records for starts, wins, losses, innings pitched, complete games, strikeouts, walks. None of those are going down, because the game has evolved to the point no pitcher will ever again approach them. The career home run record is probably never beaten clean. I also doubt anyone breaks Ripkens streak.
I thought this whole time his name was pronounce “Cagney” 😅
The most unbreakable streak is Johnny Vandermeer throwing 2 straight no hitters. To break the record a pitcher would have to throw 3.
Below are some of the most unbreakable records, likely harder to break than the consecutive saves record:
Walter Johnson 110 career complete game shutouts.
Jack Chesbro 41 wins in a season
Fernando Tatis Sr 2 grand slams in an inning
Christy Mathewson 3 shoutouts in a World Series
Ed Reulbach throwing 2 shutouts on the same day. The only way to break this is if 2 teams played a triple header and the same pitcher threw shutouts in all 3 games.
Some good ones, but I would limit it to records that there is a technical possibility at least of being broken. Like the record for lowest BA, OBP, Slug, OPS are all 0.000 and unbreakable. Highest era is probably unbreakable because I assume at some point someone came into a game, gave up a run without getting an out and didn't pitch again. So the record for worst era would be infinity.
Why even call it a "save". How about calling it a "somehow managed not to totally screw it up.".
Which is a save...Save makes sense..
Most unbreakable? Saves are a pointless stat. Cal ripken? Cy young? Jesus christ, were you even old enough to remeber kenan and kel?
