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. Try to stick to on-the-field stuff. I`m not interested in personal off-the-field stuff like spouses, girl friends, drug habits, salaries, mascots, etc. 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.
Publications Numerous encyclopedia, newspaper, magazine articles. One book, several book chapters.
Question what is the record for most pitches thrown in one game?
Answer Raul,
I can only find figures for the record since 1990. And that would be Tim Wakefield who threw 172 pitches as a Pirate on April 27, 1993.

Thank you for your kindness in rating me. Maybe I misunderstood your question. When you find the answer to the question, I would appreciate your letting me know what it is. Obviously, if you're looking for the most number of pitches by both sides in a single game, it's probably some 20+ inning game. Sorry I could not have been more helpful.
