He would be a lot stingier with the free passes on that day.\u00a0 Adams, in fact, would set the MLB record for the most innings pitched in a single outing without giving up a walk.\u00a0 Adams went the distance in a 21-inning, 3-1 Pirates&#8217; loss (the Giants&#8217; Marquard also pitched the full 21 innings). In the 21 frames, Adams gave up just 12 hits &#8211; <em><strong>and zero walks<\/strong><\/em> &#8211; while fanning six,. Marquard gave up 15 hits and two walks, while fanning just two. The game was tied at one apiece after 20 innings, but the Giants got to Adams for two in the top of the 21st &#8211; on a single by CF <strong>Bob Bescher<\/strong> and an inside-the-park homer by 2B <strong>Larry Doyle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Adams pitched in 19 MLB seasons (1906-07, 1909-16, 1918-26).\u00a0 He pitched for the Pirates in all but the 1906 season (Cardinals). Adams went 194-140, 2.76 and led the NL in fewest walks per nine innings in four straight seasons (1919-22), finishing the league&#8217;s top-three in the category in nine times.\u00a0 <em>Side note:\u00a0 If Adams came back to the mound and walked 160 straight batters, he would still have a better career walks-per-nine innings ratio than Hall of Fame corner-painter <strong>Greg Maddux<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As always, when Baseball Roundtable researches\u00a0 a topic,<em> one thing always seem to lead to another<\/em> &#8211; and, this time, it led to three trivia questions that can all be answered <strong>&#8220;Babe Adams.&#8221;<\/strong>\u00a0 We&#8217;ll get back to our originally scheduled topic &#8211; walk-stingy hurlers &#8211; but first a look at some Babe Adams not so trivial trivia.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong>Who was the first rookie to start a deciding Game Seven of a World Series?<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><strong>Who was the first pitcher to throw a shutout in a deciding seventh game of a World Series?<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><strong>Who was the fist rookie to win three games in a single World Series?<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Adams came into the 1909 seasons having had brief\u00a0 MLB \u201clooks\u201d in 1906-07 &#8212; no wins, three losses, 7.96 ERA in five games (so, his rookie status was intact.). Pitching in the minors in Louisville in 1908, he went 22-12. In 1909, he stuck with the Pirates, getting in 25 games (12 starts\/seven complete games) and putting up a 12-3, 1.11 record. \u00a0Adams was far from the star of the Pirates&#8217; staff, which included <strong>Howie Camnitz<\/strong> (25-6, 1.62), <strong>Vic Willis<\/strong> (22-11, 2.24) and <strong>Lefty Leifield<\/strong> (19-8, 2.37).\u00a0 But manager <strong>Fred Clarke<\/strong> like liked Adam\u2019s steady composure on \u00a0the mound, his strong finish to the season and how the rookie&#8217;s\u00a0 <em>stuff\u00a0 and style<\/em> matched up against the Tigers.\u00a0 So, Adams got the Game One start and the rest is history.<\/p>\n<p>Adams earned complete-game wins in Games One and Five, giving up just four earned runs. Then came the deciding Game Seven.\u00a0 (The World Series&#8217; first-ever deciding seventh game.) Adams again went the distance, shutting out the Tigers on six hits (one walk and one whiff).\u00a0 Thus, he pitched and <em><strong>threw a shutout<\/strong><\/em> to <em><strong>win the first deciding Game Seven (as a rookie) and also became the first rookie to win three games in a best-of-seven World Series.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Back to our Originally Scheduled Topic &#8230; How about 22 Innings Without a Walk?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">While Babe Adams holds the single-pitcher, single-game record for most innings pitched without issuing a walk, on\u00a0 August 23, 1989, the Expos&#8217; staff set an MLB record by going 22 innings without issuing a single walk (intentional or non-intentional).\u00a0 The Dodgers, who had 20 hits in the game (the Expos had 13) won the contest on a <strong>Rick Dempsey<\/strong> home run (off <strong>Dennis Martinez<\/strong>) in the top of the 22<sup>nd<\/sup> frame. In the game, Montreal starter <strong>Pascual Perez<\/strong> went the first eight innings and only went to a three-ball count on one batter (3-2 before fanning Dodgers&#8217; LF <strong>Lenny Harris<\/strong> in the first frame). In fact, over the first 18 innings, Expos&#8217; hurlers \u2013 they used six in the game &#8211;\u00a0 reached three balls on only three batters.\u00a0 (The Baseball-Reference.com pitch-by-pitch only goes through the first 18 innings, so I need to do a bit more research on this one.)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Side Note: In this game, Youppi \u2013 the Expos&#8217; mascot &#8211; \u00a0was ejected in the 11th inning.
