In 1944, Charley "Red" Barrett of the Boston Braves threw only FIFTY-EIGHT pitches during a nine inning complete game. Barrett's Braves shutout the Reds 2 - 0 and the game set major league records for least number of pitches known to have been thrown by a single pitcher in a complete game and shortest game played at night.
Jim Tobin, whose career spanned 1937-1945 for the Boston Braves, Pittsburgh Pirates, and Detroit Tigers, hit three home runs in a game for the Braves against the Chicago Cubs on May 13, 1942. He is the only pitcher, through the 2009 season, to have accomplished the feat.
Jim Tobin hit 3 on May 13, 1942, BUT it was against the Cubs, not the Dodgers. Boston Braves ace Jim Tobin became the only Major League pitcher ever to hit three successive home runs during a May 13, 1942, 6-5 victory over the Chicago Cubs. In 1940, Tobin joined the Boston Braves, where manager Casey Stengel made him a relief pitcher. On May 13, 1942, by then a starter, Tobin became the only pitcher in modern major-league history to hit three home runs in one game (Guy Hecker hit three homers in a game in the nineteenth century).
Only one Philadelphia Phillies pitcher ever hit a home run in the World Series. In Game 4 of the 2008 Fall Classic, hurler Joe Blanton hit his first major league home run. He also was credited with the win in the Phillies' 10-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. Blanton became the 13th pitcher to hit a home run in a Series. He also was the second Phillies pitcher to hit a homer in a postseason game. Steve Carlton homered in the 1978 National League Championship Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

A no decision is given to a starting pitcher who does not get credit for either a win or a loss for that game. A starting pitcher may come out for a relief pitcher with the score tied. Only the pitchers in the game when the final go-ahead run is scored get credit for a win or loss.
No, only pitches to home plate count towards the pitch count.
