Brewers Trivia Tuesday, Part II

*Updated*

This weeks trivia questions are a bit more recent that Trivia Tuesday, Part I.  If you think you know the answer because you are a fan, not because you can search the web, simple add a comment below and we’ll see if you are right.  I will update the questions, with the right answers within a day or two of posting this.  Good luck.

What player has the record for the most strikeouts (as a batter) in one game?

The answer to this one surprised me at first.  Geoff Jenkins, against the Angels on June 8th, 2004, struck out 6 times.  I think this was the 17 inning game.

What player has the record for the most strikeouts (as a pitcher) in one game?

The most strikeouts for a pitcher in ONE game was only about one month before Geoff whiffed 6 times, and it was Ben Sheets, who struck out 18 Braves on May 16th, 2004.

There are a couple hints, that might help keep you from searching the web. Both games were in 2004 and both records were established within ONE month of each other. If you know any of your friends that might want to take a stab at this, go ahead and share the post with them.

Don’t forget to check us out on Facebook and join in the fan discussions and comment on the posts we make during the games!
