I'm guessing Dennis Eckersly but I don't really know for sure.

Baseball Reference says Walt Dropo of the '52 Tigers, with 12.\n\nTed Williams has the record for most consecutive times on base, with 16 in '57.

This is Craig Biggio's 19th year with Astros.  He is the current player with longest streak.\n\nDon't know if he is the one in history though.

GreenCaddyMan needs to read the question.  Ken Griffey Jr. hold's the the record for most Home Runs in the month of April, not September.\n\nBut yeah as for the real answer it is Albert Belle.  I just wish he didn't get hurt and have to retire as soon as he did.  He was a big help to the Orioles before he left the game!

Johnny Vander Meer\n\nIn June 1938, Johnny Vander Meer of the Cincinnati Reds accomplished what no other pitcher has managed to duplicate before or since. On June 11 of that year, he threw a no-hitter against the Boston Braves. In his very next start, June 15, he threw a no-hitter against the Brooklyn Dodgers, thus becoming the only pitcher in baseball history to throw consecutive no-hitters. He was perhaps aided by the fact that it was also the very first night game at Ebbets Field. Most baseball historians believe that his feat will never be exceeded, since to do so a pitcher would have to throw three consecutive no-hitters.\n\nAllie Reynolds (in 1951), Virgil Trucks (in 1952), and Nolan Ryan (in 1973) are the only other major leaguers thus far to throw two no-hitters in the same season. The pitcher who came closest to matching Vander Meer's feat was Ewell Blackwell of Cincinnati, who had a no-hitter broken up with one out in the ninth against Brooklyn on June 22, 1947, four days after no-hitting the Boston Braves 6-0.

For complete information, click on the link below.\n\nFeller played for the Cleveland Indians, his only team, for 18 years, being one of "The Big Four" Indians pitching rotation in the 1950s, along with Bob Lemon, Early Wynn and Mike Garcia. He ended his career with 266 victories and 2,581 strikeouts, and led the American League in strikeouts seven times. He pitched three no-hit games and shares the major league record with 12 one-hitters. Feller was the first pitcher to win 20 or more games before the age of 21. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962, his first year of eligibility. When he was 17 years of age, he struck out 17 batters; he and Kerry Wood are the only two players ever to strike out their age (Wood struck out 20 on May 6, 1998).\n\nHe was signed by scout Cy Slapnicka for $1 and an autographed baseball. Upon being made GM of the Indians, Slapnicka transferred Feller's contract from Fargo-Moorehead to New Orleans to the majors without the pitcher so much as visiting either farm club, in clear violation of baseball rules. After a three-month investigation, Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis made it clear that he did not believe what Slapnicka or Cleveland president Alva Bradley said, but awarded Feller to the Indians anyway, partly due to the testimony of Feller and his father, who wanted Bob to play for Cleveland.\n\nOn the opening day of the 1940 season he pitched a no-hitter against the Chicago White Sox, with the help of a diving play on the final out by second basemen, Ray Mack. On December 8, 1941 Feller enlisted in the Navy. He was chief of an anti-aircraft gun crew of the USS Alabama, and missed four seasons during his service in World War II, being decorated with five campaign ribbons and eight battle stars. Many baseball historians have speculated that Feller would have won perhaps 350 games with well over 3,000 strikeouts had he not joined the military.\n\nWhen Feller retired in 1956, he held the dubious major league record for most walks in a career (1,764). He still holds the 20th Century record for most walks in a season (208 in 1938).\n\nHe lives with his second wife, Anne Feller, in Gates Mills, Ohio. Feller and his ex-wife, Virginia Winther, have 3 sons.

There have been several who have pitched a perfect game by getting out all 27 batters in a row in a nine inning game. However, no one has ever struck out 27 batters in a row.\n\nI hope this helps.

Most consecutive would be held by a man named Luke Appling who once fouled off 17 straight pitches before hitting a triple. The most foul balls in one at bat is held by Roy Thomas who once fouled off 22 pitches. Recently, Alex Cora fouled off 14 straight and then hit a homerun on the 18th pitch of the at bat.

Yes, it has happened before. The pitcher was Ken Johnson . On April 23 1964  Ken Johnson of the than Houston Colt .45's (now the Astros) to the Cincinatti Reds. Both teams were scorless till the ninth when with one out Pete Rose bunted to Johnson who threw it wide and allow Rose to reach second base. A ground out allow Rose to reach third. With two outs now Vida Pinson grounded to Neillie Fox a second who bobbled the ball and his throw was late to first which allowed Rose to score the first and only run of the game. Houston failed to score in the ninth and Johnson became the only player to lose a no  hit game still reconized.\n\nIn 1991 Commisioner Fay Vincent changed the rule of a No Hitter and a Perfect game.\n\nA No HItter happens when a pitcher or pitchers does not allow a hit in a game that goes atleast nine innings or more if it goes to extra innings. However a pitcher can still pitch a no hitter and still lose.\n\nA Perfect games happens when a pitcher pitches  in a complete game victory lasting 9 innings or more with out a hit, walk, hit batter, or any baserunner for any reason. Unlike a  No hitter you cannot lose the game.

That has to be Harvey Haddix's 12 2/3 inning perfect game that was broken up in the 13th inning. Lew Burdette pitched the whole game for the Milwaukee Braves, giving up 12 hits but no runs.
