Most hits by a Major Legue Baseball team that was shut-out

January 6th, 2009
  • What is the Major League record for most hits by a baseball team that was shut out in a game. I am interested in modern day professional baseball (1950-present). Extra innings or nine innings. I would guess it to be around 14 hits. Any information pre 1950 is ok but my main interest is modern baseball.


  • Hello. Wow, good guess! 14 is the record for a nine-inning game. New York Giants on September 14, 1913 (shut out by the Cubs). Cleveland Indians on July 10, 1928 (shut out by Washington). source: Baseballlibrary.com http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/features/experts/06_06_01.stm#1 Also: "July 3, 1913: The Red Sox tally 15 hits off Washington's Walter Johnson, but lose 1?0 in 15 innings. This a ML frustration record for most hits in a shutout." source: Baseballlibrary.com http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/ballplayers/J/Johnson_Walter.stm Since you're interested in modern baseball, though, the most recent brush with the record apparently happened in 1993 when the Braves gave up 13 hits but shut out the Pirates. "July 18, 1993: Atlanta's Steve Avery and two relievers shut out the Pirates, 2-0, despite surrendering 13 hits, just one shy of the record for most hits allowed in a shutout." source: Baseballlibrary.com http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/ballplayers/A/Avery_Steve.stm --------- "most hits in a shutout" "most hits allowed in a shutout" "14 hit shutout" "13 hits", shutout, record "13 hits", "in a shutout", record "14 hits", "in a shutout", record "15 hits", "in a shutout", record I hope this helps.
