FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY » September 4, 1974: California's Andy Hassler hands out 10 walks but still shuts out the Red Sox, 6–0. It is the 3rd time this year a California pitcher has been this generous with bases on balls. » September 17, 1978: Boston finally wins against the Yankees, taking a 7–3 victory in Yankee Stadium as Dennis Eckersley and Andy Hassler combine to stop the Yankees on four hits. The Yanks score two unearned runs in 8th on Butch Hobson's 2nd error of the game (and his 42nd of the year). Carl Yastrzemski, playing CF in place of the inured Fred Lynn, collects his 14th homer of the year in the 9th inning. » September 1, 1990: Bobby Witt allows 10 walks against Oakland in seven innings, the 2nd Ranger in a four days to hand out 10 walks. Before this season, the last pitcher to hand out 10 walks was Andy Hassler, in 1974. Witt also has 10 strikeouts and wins, 3–2, for his 10th victory in a row.
