Where is the career mark? Research into cumulative balk records is still ongoing and data is still too incomplete to make a proper selection.
On May 4, 1963, Bob Shaw of the Milwaukee Braves tied the record for most balks during an inning, set a new Major League record for balks in a game, AND his team became the first ever to commit six balks during a nine-inning game.
Did you know that on August 7, 1984, Joe Hesketh was called-up by the Montreal Expos and before he ever threw a single Major League pitch, umpires called a balk on him?
