Give me some good baseball trivia

Who holds the record for most at-bats in a season without a hit?

Cubs/Braves pitcher Bob Buhl, who went 0-for-70 in 1962, part of an 0-for-87 (also a record) stretch that spanned three years.

 

The 7 players who have hit 3 home runs in a game in both leagues:

Babe Ruth, Johnny Mize, Claudell Washington, Dave Kingman, Larry Parrish, Darryl Strawberry, Mark McGwire

 

Most home runs in a game, both teams ... 12, done twice
(are you ready for this!)

Detroit Tigers (7) and Chicago White Sox's (5). May 28 1995
Detroit Tigers (6) and Chicago White Sox's (6) July 2 2002

 

And the newest record:

Most consecutive games won by a team by the same score:

4 by the Padres this past week

2-1 over the Cubs on Wednesday, 2-1 over the Mets on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

 

A team that actually wins close games? Guess they aren't the Braves.
