A few years ago, I agreed to cover for one of our guys and take the last game of the first night of a large multi-level SP tournament.
In the bottom of the first, the pitcher walked the first 12 batters on 48 pitches.
As you might have guessed, this was not the top level. However, each team had won 2 games that day and lost 1.
Has anyone else ever called 48 balls in a row?
In case anybody's wondering, they didn't replace the pitcher. He finally started getting some pitches over and got out with only a 15-run inning. In fact, his team actually pulled ahead, 26-25, in the top of the 7th, only to lose 27-26 in the home half (no walks).
