Yes, a number of times, 47 if I counted correctly.
The most recent was Brad Penny last September.

No the main ever is 21 by utilising Tom Cheney, yet it is in a sixteen inning game. In a 9 inning game the main is 20 by utilising Roger Clemens(two times), Randy Johnson, and Kerry wood. The checklist for many strikeouts in a 9-inning game by utilising a minor league pitcher became set by utilising Ron Necciai, who struck out 27 batters in a classification-D game between the Appalachian League Bristol Twins and the Welsh Miners (could 13, 1952).

Many, many times.
If the third strike is dropped by the catcher, he must corral the ball and tag out the batter-runner. If he can't make the tag, and first base is unoccupied with less than two out, or occupied with two out, the batter-runner can try to advance to first on a dropped third strike. In that case, the catcher must throw the ball to first, for the first baseman to tag out the batter runner. If the batter runner reaches first safely, he still has the strike out against him, and the pitcher is still awarded the k, but the batter runner is safe on either a strike out / wild pitch or a strike out / passed ball. In either case, he's safe, so the pitcher still must get three outs for the inning. If they all come on strike outs, then the pitcher has recorded 4 strike outs in the inning.

Yes if a person such as Jhon Smoltz Strikes out 2 people and has 2 strikes on a batter and the batter swings and missis and then the catcher drops the ball. the batter can run to first. If he is safe then it is not an out but it counts as a strike out. Then the pitcher stikes out the next man then.......

I believe Octavio Dotel did it a few years back in an interleague game against the Yankees. If I remember correctly, it was part of a no-hitter by about six Astros pitchers after the starter left due to injury.

Yes. If a pitcher throws a dropped third stike and the batter reaches first safely, I suppose he could stike out more than 3 batters in an inning.

It's happened quite a few times. In 1999, it happened 6 times, with Chuck Finley doing it 3 times.
