MLB'S MOST STRIKEOUTS
IN A GAME
THE LONGEST LIST OF THE LONGEST
STUFF AT THE LONGEST DOMAIN NAME AT LONG LAST
Who has the most strikeouts in a MLB game?
On April 29, 1986 of the Boston
Red Sox had a great game striking out 20 Seattle Mariners, the most strike outs
in a 9 inning game.
Just
over a decade later, on September 18, 1996 he did it again, this time striking
out 20 Detroit Tigers in 9 innings.
On May 06,1998 Kerry Wood of the Chicago Cubs struck
out 20 Houston Astros in 9 innings, the only other player to do so.
However, 20 strikeouts in a game is not the record,
that belongs to Tom Cheney of the Washington Senators, who on September 12, 1962
struck out 21 Baltimore Orioles.
It did take Tom Cheney 16 innings to reach 21
strikeouts, but it is still the most strikeouts in a single game.
