AboutTom Schott Expertise I will deal with the major leagues only from 19th century to present. I`m good on baseball history, records, statistics, ballparks. I don't do off-the-field stuff. Please if you already know the answer to the question, please don't ask it. I don't want to play "stump the expert."
Experience I've written on the subject, and I have substantial library of resources.

Question Bengie Molina has gone over 80 at bats this season without a walk, what is the major league record for at bats without a walk?
Answer Petr,
From 1954 to present, the record is held by Mariano Duncan, who in 77 games from June 24, 1994 to August 8, 1995, went 305 at bats without a walk, playing for Philadelphia and Cincinnati.
I'm sorry, but I cannot verify any figures before 1954.
By the way, there are hundreds of players who have gone 80 or more ABs without a walk.
