The record is 15ks according to MLB.com
Quote:J.R. Richard and Karl Spooner are tied for the record with 15 in their first games. Richard did it for the Astros at San Francisco on Sept. 5, 1971 while Spooner got his mark for the Brooklyn Dodgers on Sept. 22, 1954 against the New York Giants.
14ks is pretty amazing though.
Jays are stinking it up in Tampa, but then we always do so I'm not overly concerned. We have a shot at avoiding the sweep tonight, which is pretty much all I could have hoped for out of this series. We really do hate going to Tropicana.
