Great question. I haven't found a record of this happening, but just last week (5/5/10), two-time Cy Young winner Tim Lincecum struck out every opposing Marlin (except the pitcher's spot) by the fifth inning, getting 13 K's in the game.
I have to assume Nolan Ryan, Randy Johnson, or Roger Clemens did this, but it would have to be at least a nine strikeout game, obviously. And going back in history, Grover Alexander, Walter Johnson, Steve Carlton, Bob Gibson, J.R. Richard would be some names I'd think of.

Why is the pitcher considered the most important defensive player on the team in baseball?
The pitcher in baseball at all levels of the game is vital to the defensive of the team. This holds true for youth baseball, college and professional baseball as well. Generally speaking the pitcher is the most important defensive player because he is involved with every single play in the inning pitched. The same is true for the team catcher, however, the pitcher must throw his pitch in a manner that prevents a batter from getting on base. If a pitcher cannot make most batters draw a strike or have the batter hit the ball to one of his teammates then the defense is in trouble.

Why isn't RBI just the luck of the batting lineup because who got on base before the batter has nothing to do with the batter?
Well, it isn't luck. Baseball is a team sport, and the team members are depending on the batter to drive them in just as much as the batter depending on them to get on base. The statistic RBI shows how productive the player is when runners are on bases. A player could have bases loaded every at bt, but zero RBI's, meaning that this player is not very productive.
