You are good and the answer you are looking for is Ron Hassey.

 

And I got a perfect game question for you. The pitcher who threw the MOST PITCHES in his perfect game is ____________. He threw 120 pitches. Just for the record, some guy named Addie Joss only threw 74 pitches for the fewest. Hint: This is a heavy answer and one of my favorite former Reds pitchers.

Was John Candelaria the pitcher?

I remember David Wells, struggling against the Twins (I believe), in late 90'. So he is my guess and if not, then I recall Sandy Koufax, throwing a lot of pitches.

 

 

By the way Hassey, is correct....

Nope, Hassey and Barker.

 

Was John Candelaria the pitcher?

In his day, the "Candy Man" was very tough.

[ladiesbballcoach]

Last pitcher to win the triple crown of pitching? K's, Wins and ERA.

I know Don Baylor had the record, and he still might, but for some reason I was thinking Craig Biggio may have broke the record.
