Best Answer

The highest number of batters that could bat during an inning where no runs are scored is 6. That would make for a maximum of 54 batters in a nine inning shutout.

What is a NFL shutout?

A shutout occurs when one pitcher pitches a complete game without allowing any runs. If another pitcher comes in, neither is awarded a shutout, but the team can be said to have "shutout" the opposing team.


If a pitcher pitches a complete game and gives up 1 run that was unearned is it still a shutout?

No, the pitcher will not get charged with the run, but since the other team scored a least 1 run it is no longer a shutout regardless how it scored.

In a MLB baseball game if a pitcher pitches 9.0 innings and it the score is 0-0 going into extra innings does he get a complete game and shutout?

No, only if he completes the game does he get credit for a complete game. He also gets credit for a shutout only if he completes the game without allowing a run, if other pitchers complete the game without allowing any runs, it is a shared shutout which is not an official statistic.

In baseball if a pitcher is throwing a perfect game and they bases are loaded due to walks and a sac fly is hit and the runner from third scores does it still count as a perfect game?

No--allowing one baserunner for any reason (including walks) immediately ends the perfect game. You may be thinking of a shutout (a game without any runs scored). Again, the answer would be no; in the situation you describe the run would be unearned, but would still prevent the pitcher from getting credit for a shutout.


What Chicago White Sox pitcher pitched both games of a double header?

No. A pitcher cannot leave the game with his team losing and end the game winning. There is a hypothetical where a pitcher is losing a game, the game gets suspended due to rain, the player then gets traded to the other team, and he pitches the resumed game and ends up winning. However, rules of baseball might prevent him playing in a game he'd started for the other team.
