The
rarest of rare plays, that I’m sure will never actually happen but
would be amazing to see, would be one that can only happen under
National League rules. It would be where, in the bottom of the ninth,
the home team pitcher hits a walk off home run to preserve his own
perfect game, and in the process breaks up a bid for a perfect game by
the opposing pitcher.
The
“quadruple play” which someone else mentioned is pretty rare too,
although probably not quite as unlikely. As the other response
mentioned, this would be a situation where a team turns what is already a
triple play, but must record a “fourth out” to negate a run that would
otherwise count. BTW officially this would “only” be a triple play. Only
three outs can officially be recorded. If a team records four outs,
though, then only three outs will count, but the official “third out”
will be whichever one is most advantageous to the team recording it.
Still a very, very rare play especially if in combination with a triple
play.
