Here are 5 Cubs single-season records that are unbreakable
Anthony Rizzo plunked in 2019Yesterday we looked at five Cubs franchise records for an overall career with the team that I think will stand forever.

Record holder: Sammy Sosa, 66
Why this won’t be broken: Sosa, as you know, is the only player in MLB history with three 60-homer seasons — and he didn’t lead his league in any of those three years. Sosa led the NL in homers twice: 2000, with 50, and 2002, with 49.
