Buried Bonds

[RBIS]

Barry Bonds averages an HR every 16 or so plate appearances. Who is the only pitcher to face Barry Bonds more than 40 times without ever giving up a homer?

[Ubiquitous]

I think there may be several pitchers.

For instance Bruce Ruffin faced Bonds 42 times without surrendering a homer. Rick Sutcliffe faced him 51 times without surrendering a homer.

By the way John Franco just misses the cutoff with 39 PA against Bonds without a homer. Rick Mahler had 36 PA against Bonds.

I was looking for Sutcliffe and should have said 50 PA. thanks .
