Here are two other trivia questions: 1) Who allowed the second least amount of hits in 3 consecutive 9 inning games? 2) Who holds the record for most consecutive shutout innings? 3) Who holds the record for the most consecutive innings without giving up a hit? (Hint: It's not Johnny Vander Meer) Last edited by Scott Garner; 06-20-2012 at 02:14 PM. |

Mark,
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... |

Cy Young had some streak of no-hit innings surrounding his 1904 perfect game. Maybe someone can find the details, but it was something like 7 no hit innings to end the game before the perfect game, and 6 no hit innings in the next game after. It was some crazy streak like that over 3 games.
