Orel Hersheiser with 59 scoreless innings is correct. Did you know that Hersheiser's 59 inning streak ended with the end of the regular season, but continued unofficially into post season. Orel actually offered to end it at 58 2/3 innings to tie Don Drysdale's standard that he set in 1968. Drysdale thanked Hersheiser, but said that baseball records were meant to be broken, and to set a new one if he could. Another bit of related trivia. Many people remember Don Drysdale's scoreless inning streak, but did you know that Bob Gibson had a 48 2/3 scoreless inning streak in 1968 as well. Ironically the streak ended at Dodger stadium vs. Drysdale if I remember correctly... BTW, I added a third trivia question in my earlier post if anybody would like to try to solve it, just for fun...
