I happened to catch this wonderful BBC tribute to Don Bradman on NPR today. Yesterday was apparently the hundredth anniversary of his birth.
I hadn't realized that Bradman's 99.94 test average would have been over 100 if he had scored just 4 runs in his final inning (he was out for a duck). After watching Olympic records fall over the last couple of weeks, I wonder if there's any other sport in which someone holds a record that's so dominant and unreachable.
