During Tuesday’s win over the Angels, Patrick Bailey had the 91st four-walk game in team history and just the fourth by a catcher.
Four walk games by catchers:
- 2026 Patrick Bailey at LAA
- 1956 Jim Hegan vs KCA
- 1956 Jim Hegan at NYY
- 1921 Steve O’Neill vs DET
Gary Alexander also had a four-walk game in 1978 in which he played catcher, but he started the game at DH and only caught the 9th inning.
Most of the players on the four-walk list are exactly who you would expect, so in an effort to capture the randomness of Bailey’s game, here are the most recent players to do so among those who were never selected to an All-Star team:
- 2007 Travis Hafner (criminal he never made a ASG)
- 2004 Jody Gerut
- 1993 Randy Milligan
- 1992 Felix Fermin
- 1991 Alex Cole
- 1991 Mike Huff
- 1990 Jerry Browne
- 1988 Willie Upshaw
