On June 22, 1976 At Jack Murphy Stadium, Randy Jones pitches the San Diego Padres to a 4 – 2 win over the San Francisco Giants, and ties Christy Mathewson’s 63-year-old National League record by going 68 innings without a base on balls. He receives a standing ovation from the home crowd after striking out Darrell Evans to end the 7th. His streak ends when he walks C Marc Hill leading off the 8th. It is Jones’s 13th win of the year.
