Ursa Majoris Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 Cubs pitcher Matt Clement just lost an 18 pitch at-bat to Alex Cora. It went: Ball, Called Strike, Ball, then 14 straight fouls before Cora hammered a 2 run homer. eek! Anyone know if there's a record for straight foul-offs?

Down Goes Frazia Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 I watched that whole AB. Absolutely incredible. Makes me wonder why he didn't pitch around Cora...... LA's pitcher sat in the on deck circle for 20 minutes watching it... and then proceeded to strike out on 4 pitches. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pope Flick Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 I was at the game rooting for the Cubbies, but still had to tip my hat to that. Pure baseball. The amazing thing was all 14 fouls were on a 2-2 count, and nearly half looked like they would've been balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
