Dave Kingman of the New York Mets led the NL with 37 homers in 1982, but batted a paltry .204, good for dead last of anybody with 500 plate appearances that year. I only looked at players with more than 20 homers in a season because it was too difficult otherwise.

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

smiley had it right... the answer is zero.\n\nA batter refusing to enter the batter's box within a reasonable amount of time according to the umpire is penalized with a strike. Therefore, any number strikeouts may be recorded without a pitch being thrown.\n\nSecondly, with the bases unoccupied, the pitcher has 12 seconds to deliver the pitch. The penalty is a ball. Therefore, a batter can reach base, circle the bases and score without a pitch being thrown.

1994 strike that wiped out 920 and the World Series. We're just now starting to climb out of that black hole.\n\n-- Maury Brown\nBaseball Prospectus

The last player to hit for the cycle was Randy Winn of the San Francisco Giants did it back on August 15th of 2005.  \n\nChad Moeller had one on April 27th but that was back in 2004.

Jimmy Piersall - it was his 100th home run. He had bipolar disorder, and actually said in his autobiography, "Probably the best thing that ever happened to me was going nuts. Whoever heard of Jimmy Piersall, until that happened?"\n\nAfter that, running the bases backwards was prohibited, as it was a travesty of the game.

Fernando Tatis\n\nOn April 23, 1999, Fernando Tatis, batting for the St. Louis Cardinals in his 226th big league game, became the first player in Major League baseball history to hit two grand slam home runs in the same inning.

Damon Berryhill hit two home runs on Monday August 22nd, 1988.  The first homerun in a Wrigley Field night game was Lenny Dykstra, but he was a Met.\nBerryhill hit a 2 run round-tripper in the 2nd inning off Mike Scott and then a 3 run blast off Joaquin Andujar in the 8th.\nThe Cubbies went on to lose the game 9-7 in 10 innings but history was made.

Current or of all time? \n\nFor Current -- I'm going with the Rocket (Rodger Clemens). he's older than most players in the league, yet still throws in the upper 90's. last season he entered a game as a pinch hitter in the 14th inning and still threw a shut out. He's unbelievable, plus he has the competitive attitude I like (plus he isn't afraid to throw at batters' heads to back 'em off the plate).

Both are equally rare, but hitting for the cycle is slightly more common. There have been 269 ocurrences of players hitting for the cycle, and 232 official no-hitters. The number of no-hitters could be higher if you count those broken up in extra innings and the ones in shortened games (called before the 9th). Prior to 1991 no-hitters ended in extra innings or in shortened games were counted as official no-hitters.
