swing and a miss (answered)

[DieHardCubbie]

This pitcher amassed 1,128 strike outs in his 12 years of Major League ball. But when it came to batting he also rung up the strike outs. He set a Major League record by fanning in 14 straight official at bats. Who was he?

Bill Hands? Struck out in 249 out of 511 plate appearances. Also played awhile with the Cubs (1966-1972).<br><br><span class=gensmall>Accepted as answer by DieHardCubbie on Tue Mar 11, 2003 10:10 am EST.</span>

In 1967 Bill Hands struck out in 26 of 38 AB's and in 1968 he struck out in 50 of 82 AB's and set the ML record.....

And yes both years were with the beloved Cubs....

Nice Job Dinocam
