Most Leadoff HRs Allowed?

Which pitcher has allowed the most leadoff home runs -- meaning the first batter of the game goes deep? He has allowed 19, if that helps.

So top of the 1st only? My first thought was Jamie Moyer, but bbref makes it look like he's only given up 12 in the top of the first.

Moyer has allowed 17, actually, but there are still two other guys with more.

Wakefield: 9.
Beckett: 4.
