Yes, if the catcher misses the ball on a swinging strike 3, the runner can advance to first and it is still recorded as a K and a wild pitch. So 4 Ks in an inning have happened frequently.

Yes, the third dropped strike and reaching first is considered a K, Did you know you can have 4 outs in an inning as well?
With two outs bases loaded you only need the force at one of the bases to prevent the run. If the run scores and you get the out on a base running blunder the run counts, however if there is an immediate appeal do to a base runner missing a base during that play a fourth out is recorded and the run is nullified due to the fact that it is a force play that that appeal represents.

No corey, we are talking about a half inning, and yes, you can have more than 3 ks if the catcher keeps dropping strike 3 and the batter successfuly makes it to first without being thrown out.

To be honest you could have an unlimited amount of K's in 1 inning as long as 1st base is open and the catcher drops the 3rd strike every time and the batter reaches 1st!

If you have a bad catcher you could rack up some pretty good strikeout numbers. That's why baseball is such a beautiful game...everyone is responsible for doing there job and the other 8 players on the field rely on each other.

The simplest answer would be of course...3K's in the Top of the inning, and 3K's at the bottom.

You sure can, with a dropped third strike.
