With his save last night against the Mets, Trevor Hoffman became the all-time leader in one pitch saves with 5. He had been tied with Dennis Eckersley with 4. 6 others have 3 one pitch saves. http://www.baseball-reference.com/play- ... areit/8uBh.
Additionally, it was his second one pitch, two out save. That ties him with Jeff Montgomery and Eckersley for most all time, with 2. http://www.baseball-reference.com/play- ... areit/mRfk (this link has all 19 such games).
Records for pitches only go back to 1988, and the pitch counts were not recorded past the 9th inning until 2000 (no one knows why), so there are surely other such games. These are the only ones we know about.
