What is the record for most walks by a batter in a nine-inning game?

I know that Brian Giles walked five times in a game earlier this year, and this may be the record, or maybe not.

The record for a single game is 6, jointly held by Jimmie Foxx and Walt Wilmot.

Yes, 5 is the record.

Brian Giles walked five times on Sunday, tying a major league record in a nine-inning game.

The last time a player had five walks in a game was Barry Bonds on Sept. 25, 2004.

I think Giles' 5 walks are considered the "modern" record.
