In 1997, Nomar Garciaparra was caught stealing 9 times in 31 attempts.

Tom Gordon had 46 saves in 1998. He held opponents to a .191 BA, surrendering only 24 runs in 79.1 innings.

As great as that season was, I’ll mostly remember him for throwing up before he came out of the bullpen in the 2004 ALCS as a member of the Yankees.

Tommy Harper stole a base in 5 straight games. His streak ran from 6/1 - 6/8/74.

Cy Young faced 1527 batters in 1902. Of course, that was back in the day when pitchers made 40 starts a year and rarely pitched anything less than a complete game.

Among active players, the record is held by Roger Clemens (he hasn’t officially retired yet). He faced 1157 batters in 1987. 

The 1996 Red Sox went 19 straight games with a home run from 7/4-7/25/1996.

They hit a total of 30 home runs over that span, with an OPS of .858. 

Jim Rice grounded into 36 double plays in 1984, breaking the old record of 32 set by Jackie Jensen in 1954. 

Wade Boggs went four straight games with at least 6 plate appearances. His streak ran from 9/19-9/23/1989. 

In 2002, Rickey Henderson had an OPS of .721 despite a batting average of .223. He was 43 years old.

In 1978, Bill Campbell had an ERA of 3.91 despite a .391 BABIP.  He gave up 62 hits in 50.2 innings, while opponents had a .362 OBP and .403 SLG.

In 1934, Lefty Grove had a season ERA of 6.50 over 109.1 innings.

No other hall of famer in Red Sox history has had a higher ERA with more than 50 innings pitched.

David Wells was 42.107 years old when he pitched a complete game vs. Baltimore on 9/4/2005.

Earl Webb hit 67 doubles in 1931. He finished the season with a .333 BA and .932 OPS. 

Wally Schang stole 15 bases in 1919, the most ever by a Red Sox catcher.

He may not be a true DH, but Manny Ramirez played over 50% of his games in that role in 2001. Over the course of the season, he struck out 147 times. 

Dwight Evans was 30 years old when he hit 2 triples on 5/11/1982. I’m a bit surprised that this record has held up for 25 seasons, but we have enough over 30 sluggers on the roster this season that this record could fall soon. 

Oldest player to have a season OPS above 1.000

In 1960, Ted Williams posted an OPS of 1.096. He was 41 years old.

note: For the sake of sample size, I only included batters with more than 200 at bats in my query. Williams had 310.
