Truly One Of A Kind
How many "one time only" things are there in the history of baseball? Can you name some? I'm thinking things like "Larry Yount" and "Johnny Vander Meer."

Mark Whiten. One career IP. He becomes the only player in major league history, with at least one inning pitched, to get every out with a strikeout. Kevin
