I won't swear it is the absolute lowest but Hall of Famer Joe Sewell struck out three times in 503 official at-bats in the 1932 season for an average of 1 strikeout per 167.7 at bats. Sewell does hold the career record for lowest strikeout rate at 1.6% with 114 strikeouts in 7,132 at bats (1 strikeout per 62.56 at-bats).
