RIP Rickey Henderson
For a sport as old as baseball to have an all-time record spread from 1 to 2 to be this wide, it shows you just how dominant he was, all-time.
The spread from 2 to 20 is very typical looking for a sports record book, but then Rickey is 49% over Lou at #2. That's bonkers. And his all-time lead-off home-runs record is 35% higher than the next (81 to 60).
