Laribee is better known as having the professional single-game strikeout record by fanning seven times in Pawtucket's 33-inning game against the Rochester Red Wings in 1981.[5] Though Laribee is most known for that ignominious distinction,[citation needed] it is rarely remembered that, in the same game, it was his sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 9th inning that tied the game at 1–1, ultimately sending the game into extra innings. Pawtucket won, 3–2, while Laribee went 0-for-11.[citation needed]
In a five-season minor-league career, Laribee posted a combined .264 batting average with 57 home runs in 458 games.
