What is the record for most hits in a game without a man left on base?
542926
If I understand the question correctly (most hits in a game where that team left no runners on base), \n\nThe highest that I have found is a three hitter (I would be surprised if this wasn't the highest, but you never know):\n\n9/2/1997- Mike Grace of the phillies pitched a three hit shutout against the Yankees.  Of the three hits, Jeter was caught stealing,  and Paul O'neill and Charlie Hayes were both erased on double plays. \n\nLook up the boxscore on retrosheet.

Aaron is best known for setting the Major League record for most home runs in a career (755), surpassing the previous mark of 714 by Babe Ruth. Aaron also holds the career marks for RBI (2,297), extra base hits (1,477) and total bases (6,856).

Yes - I can't find the numbers directly, but the NL record for runs scored in an inning is 18, by the Chicago White Stockings on Sept 6, 1883.  Obviously to score 18 runs, you'd have to have at least 18 batters come up to the plate.\n\nBelow is a list of records for runs in an inning.

12. Most recently done by Mark Whiten in 1993. He also hit 4 homers in that game.\n\nWho had 18? I would like to see it. I looked this up in a baseball record book.

Their really isn't one correct answer to this question, I'll try to explain. I’ll start with the home run that Mickey Mantle hit at Griffith Stadium in Washington on April 17, 1953. The entire baseball world was led to believe the ball had traveled 565 feet from home plate to the point where it landed.\nIn truth, that figure derived from the distance from home plate to the place where a neighborhood child retrieved the ball. However, the actual distance in the air was probably about 510 feet (most sources still have this as #1). The same process happened again with Mantle on September 10, 1960 at Briggs Stadium in Detroit when a ball he hit was reported to have traveled 643 feet but it is readily apparent once again that the ball had bounced several times before it reached the estimated distance (this is the home run that the "Guinness Book of Records" has as #1). When your talking about tape measure home runs you can’t leave out Babe Ruth. It was said that Ruth once hit one 587 feet in an exhibition game against the Giants back in 1919. Also his tremendous blow to right-center field in Detroit on June 8, 1926, has often been reported as traveling 628 feet, but again was it measured where it first landed or where it came to a rest. Included among the other great exaggerations in the history of tape measure home runs are Dave Nicholson’s Comiskey Park rooftopper on May 6, 1964 who’s shot was calculated at 573 feet. The calculations were on the assumption that the ball traveled completely over the left-center-field roof. However, subsequent\ninvestigation indicated that the ball landed on the back of the roof before bouncing out into the night. Also, when Dave Kingman launched his wind-aided blow in Chicago’s Wrigley Field on April 14, 1976, "The New York Times" somehow concluded that it had flown 630 feet. It has been confirmed that the ball struck against the third house beyond Waveland Avenue, which is situated about 530 feet from home plate. Yet another claim (by the "Guinness Book of Records"), has a minor league player by the name of Roy Edward "Dizzy" Carlyle having hit one 618 feet at Emeryville Ball Park, CA on July 4, 1929. Mark McGwire hit several home runs over 500 feet and one over 540 and his is measured accurately every time he hits one. I know I didn’t cover everything but I hope I covered enough to satisfy you.\n\nAlso, Mantle's home run off the facade at Yankee Stadium on May 22, 1963 traveled between 370 to 374 feet and was between 115 to 117 feet high. If it was still going up like some people claim it would have traveled an estimated distance of 620 feet if left unimpeded. However, the reality is that the ball was already on its way down, and those reporting the trajectory were victimized by a common optical illusion. It is a scientific fact that if Mantle, or anyone else, had sufficient strength to hit a ball that was still traveling upward when it met the towering facade, he would also have enough strength to clear that same facade by a distance of at least 100 feet. In order for the ball to be rising at roof level, it would have to have been traveling at a lower angle than that which produces maximum distance. If Mantle had provided the same power or velocity, but had launched the ball at a higher and more efficient angle, it would have passed out of Yankee Stadium at a height of over 200 feet! Mantle hit the facade on two or perhaps three occasions, but never cleared it.\nSource(s):\nYou can also go to:\n\nhttp://www.baseball-almanac.com/feats/ar...

The MODERN record for most runs by a single team is 29, by the Red Sox against the St. Louis Browns on 6/8/1950, and by the White Sox against Kansas City on 4/23/1955.\n\nEarlier,on 6/29/1897, Chicago Colts of the NL scored 36 runs against Louisville.\n\nThe AMERICAN League record for BOTH TEAMS is 36 (Boston 22, Philadelphia 14; 6/29/1950)\n\nThe MAJOR League record for BOTH teams is 49 (Cubs 26, Phillies 23; 8/25/1922)

It wasn't the record for consecutive hits. It was the record for most games with at least one hit. And it was 1941.

No hits and no walks (intentional or not)Simply, nobody gets on base.\nNo hits only is "a no hitter" (Walks are allowed)

They don't keep many stats like that so it would be very hard to find out. I know he hit that 565 foot shot in Washington but I'm not positive which side of the plate he was standing.

it has nothing to do with which pitch was hit out, and only the home team can hit a walk off home run.\n\nA walk off home run is a home run hit by the home team in the bottom of the 9th inning (or in extra innings) that wins the game. \n\nIt's called a walk off home run because the teams walk off the field after the play, because the game ends at that point.

Johnny Vander Meer\n\nIn June 1938, Johnny Vander Meer of the Cincinnati Reds accomplished what no other pitcher has managed to duplicate before or since. On June 11 of that year, he threw a no-hitter against the Boston Braves. In his very next start, June 15, he threw a no-hitter against the Brooklyn Dodgers, thus becoming the only pitcher in baseball history to throw consecutive no-hitters. He was perhaps aided by the fact that it was also the very first night game at Ebbets Field. Most baseball historians believe that his feat will never be exceeded, since to do so a pitcher would have to throw three consecutive no-hitters.\n\nAllie Reynolds (in 1951), Virgil Trucks (in 1952), and Nolan Ryan (in 1973) are the only other major leaguers thus far to throw two no-hitters in the same season. The pitcher who came closest to matching Vander Meer's feat was Ewell Blackwell of Cincinnati, who had a no-hitter broken up with one out in the ninth against Brooklyn on June 22, 1947, four days after no-hitting the Boston Braves 6-0.

There have been several who have pitched a perfect game by getting out all 27 batters in a row in a nine inning game. However, no one has ever struck out 27 batters in a row.\n\nI hope this helps.

Roger Connor is correct. He hit 138 HR's in his career, which spanned from 1880-1897.\n\nAlthough season records were well circulated even back in the 19th century, career records were not really maintained on a consistent basis until the 1960s. You might look at a list of all time hit leaders, and notice that, for example, Sam Rice retired in 1934 with 2,987 hits, and wonder why he didn't stick around long enough to get 3,000... the answer is because when he retired, he had no idea how many career hits he had... he later said that had he known 3,000 hits would be such a big deal, he would have played long enough to reach that milestone.\n\nSome attempts were made in the 1920s and 30s to figure out what some of the major career records were...  "The Baseball Cyclopedia", the first attempt to produce what we now know as The Baseball Encyclopedia, was produced in 1922. This was during the period of time when sports writers first attempted to figure out what the career records were for pitching and batting categories.\n\nThey also researched such things as hitting streaks, and consecutive game playing streaks...and without their efforts, the Lou Gehrig streak story would not exist.\n\nThis first group got a lot of things wrong...they variously attributed the career HR record to Sam Thompson, or Dan Brouthers, or Gavy Cravath...and in doing so, they overlooked Roger Connor completely. It wasn't until the 1960's that Lee Allen (who published the first MacMillan Baseball Encyclopedia in 1969) 'discovered' that it was, in fact, Roger Connor who had 'set' the career HR record with 138, which Ruth broke in 1921.\n\nConnor held the career HR record for almost 25 years before Ruth surpassed it in 1921.\n\nConnor died in 1931, and because career records were not fully or accurately kept, he certainly never knew that he had ever held any kind of career HR record.

Your scenario may be a bit toward the improbable side of the spectrum. However, if the pitcher isn't paying attention and time out isn't called, then the runner can steal second. Often times, when a player steals home, it is because the pitcher isn't paying attention, so it is possible to steal a base without a pitch. Then, when the pitcher actually makes a pitch, the runner can steal third. That would be 2 steals in one play.\nI guess you could try to stretch that out further and make it three steals in one play, but that would be incredibly improbable.

Ted Simmons with 2472, played from 1968 to 1988.  Mike Piazza leads in all time home runs by a catcher.  \nThe next few on the hitting list are Carlton Fisk, Joe Torre, Yogi Berra, and Gary Carter.
