Most wild pitches in a season

quote:

---

Mark Baldwin in 1889.

---

I bet his catchers could receive and block pitches better.

Lyn, is that you?

quote:

---

Half of those should be passed balls because we don’t block

---

if the ball hits the dirt before reaching the catcher, it’s almost universally scored as a wild pitch.

that’s not an actual rule, but a generally followed rule of thumb.
