unusual facts about bases on balls



Bill Koski

In his one starting assignment, his second Major League appearance on May 5, 1951, Koski lasted 4⅓ innings against the New York Giants, gave up four hits, six bases on balls and four earned runs, and took the loss in an 8–3 defeat at the Polo Grounds.
