In MLB, the most home runs given up by a pitcher in a single game is 7 by Charlie Sweeney of the St. Louis Maroons to the Detroit Wolverines on June 12, 1886.

Several pitchers have given up 6 home runs in a game ... the last being James Shields of the Tampa Bay Rays to the Toronto Blue Jays on August 7, 2010.
