    According to the info here - http://www.baseball-almanac.com/recbooks/home_runs_allowed_records.shtml - the record is held by Bert Blyleven with 50 in the 1986 season for Minnesota. The fact that he has been on the Hall of Fame ballot several times goes to show that this is not a particularly accurate measure of how good or bad a pitcher is... you have to throw a lot of innings to get hit for a lot of home runs!
