It has been just a month since the 2022 MLB season started. But what a season MLB is having this time. With each passing day, various teams and players have been creating multiple records. Although the 2022 season started a bit late, this is one of the best seasons going on. Teams like the New York Yankees and New York Mets are making history this season.
