The 30-3 game was also the 1st game of a double header so immediately after the Rangers crushed the Orioles they had to come right back out and play again and the Rangers won that game as well.
Craziest thing about that 30-3 game? It was the front half of a doubleheader. The Orioles lost the back end of the doubleheader 9-7. And they led that game too.
To be fair to the Tigers pitcher Allen Travers who gave up all 24 runs in the loss, the entire Tigers team went on strike to protest Ty Cobb's suspension for beating up a fan so Tigers management literally went to the streets to field a team. Travers was found standing on a street corner in Philadelphia and although he never pitched a game in his life, was tabbed to pitch that day so keeping all of that in mind, he really didn't do that badly. Also, missing from this list, was the Phillies shelling the Mets 26-7 in 1985, a game where Von Hays hit 2 home runs in the first inning including a grand slam.
Not quite "on a street corner"; Travers and most of the Tigers were local amateurs, with several coaches reactivating themselves for the day. Still, it's one of baseball history's most fascinating stories and well worth mentioning and reading about.
@@MarkRosa But Travers was literally found on a street corner. From Wikipedia: "Jennings found Allan Travers on a city street corner. The 20-year-old junior from Philadelphia's St. Joseph's College was a violinist in the student orchestra, but had never pitched a game in his life. He had even been unable to make the school's varsity baseball team. Instead, Travers served as the team's assistant manager, preparing game summaries for the school annual." So he wasn't even on a team and had never pitched before and only did so because it paid more.
@@Rockhound6165 I understand that he later became a Jesuit priest, so maybe he sought solace in religion for the sufferings of that day. He is the only Catholic priest to have played Major League baseball, though I've heard of a couple that became ministers in Protestant denominations, including ex-Yankee relief ace Lindy McDaniel.
@@Rockhound6165 I'm not sure. Maybe he was a seminary student or something, but not yet a priest. Anyway, he got a good story to tell in later years and a permanent listing in the baseball encyclopedia. Who wouldn't want that?
Note on the Philadelphia A's-Detroit Tigers game: Ty Cobb had been suspended for going into the stands in Philadelphia the day before and beating up a fan who had been heckling him (I believe the gentleman was handicapped). The Tigers went on strike to defend him, and Detroit management fielded a team of scrubs/scabs to play the Athletics that day.
I live in Texas and remember that 30-3 beat down against the Orioles. My dad had a work friend in Baltimore and he called him after the game and he was laughing for a solid 2 minutes. His friend is a very *hardcore* Orioles fan.
@Eric Elsinger hahaha we won the world series four times in the last 20 years, won the Super Bowl 6 times in the last 20 years not to mention all the appearances in the finals let alone the wins, won won the Stanley Cup once and we are currently in the finals right now and also don't forget to mention all the Eastern conference championships we've won including first place in our division in all of the teams in Boston and the Boston Celtics won the NBA Championship in 2008 and also had a bunch of division championships so our city is more successful then yours will ever be it's not a statement it's a fact
When the meteors come to wipe out all life on Earth, Orioles fans will be out sitting in their lawn chairs, sipping Natty Bohs and calmly watching one last disaster.
The Mariners one needs to be updated now. The Astros just DESTROYED the Mariners 21-1! The shelled award goes to Felix Hernandez for giving up 7 runs and Wade LeBlanc for giving up 6 runs. Everyone on the Astros got at least one hit and one run and Gerrit Cole struck out 15 batters!
Fun fact: That game the Tigers lost by 22 was the game where all the starters sat out protesting Ty Cobb's suspension for beating a fan that had no hands, resulting in the Tigers using sandlot players.
I think the 27-8 beat down the Red Sox put on the Marlins should get a mention. The first inning alone the Sox scored 14 runs, with Johnny Damon getting 3 hits in that inning, the first two pitchers the Marlins used didn't even get an out, and oh yea, the Marlins went on to win the World Series that year.
On Jun 6, 1950, the Red Sox beat the St. Louis Browns (now the Orioles) 20-4. On Jun 7, 1950, the Red Sox beat the St. Louis Browns 29-4. RIP Bill Buckner
Wait a second...the St. Louis Browns became the Baltimore Orioles and the Cleveland Browns became the Baltimore Ravens. St. Louis Browns never won a World Series either. While the Cleveland Browns won championships before the merger, their 30 year drought partially led to the move. Sports are weird. I feel like there's a Jon Bois video in there somewhere.
Lol, schadenfreude. That game where Blazek gave up five homers against the Phils had me laughing hysterically for about five minutes, and I'm a Brewers fan!
I was at that Mets game in Washington with my dad, who was down to visit me. We never leave baseball games before they're over. This one we left in the fifth inning, when the Nats had put up a touchdown and then four straight field goals for a score of 19-0. Being a Mets fan is often painful, and that was probably my most painful moment as a Mets fan. When Matz shits the bed, he goes all out.
I was at that Phillies-Reds game. My friend's dad had gotten sick and so I went with said friend and his grandpop. I never saw Uncle Chollie (aka Charlie Manuel) so happy in my life. I was tired from celebrating so much when I got home that night.
At 11:47, the reason why that game was so lopsided was because the regular Tigers were sitting out in protest over Ty Cobb's recent suspension. As such, their manager found a bunch of random guys in Philadelphia to suit up and play as Detroit (it's implied, but not mentioned directly in the video).
I was at a game similar to the one you mentioned for Nats v Mets back in 2017, it even included the Nats and Mets. While I don't remember much of the game since I spent about three inning waiting in line for ice cream, I do remember that Rendon had six rbi's, Noah Syndergaard got hurt which ruined a promising start for New York, and the Mets got shlacked 23-5.
-Last year attended what was recorded as Dodger's worst shutout in Dodger Stadium history: 14-0 loss by Houston Astros. 5 years earlier I was at a different Dodger Stadium game where final score was SF 19-LA 3. I think one more and I'mm banned from Dodger Stadium -My dad's worst viewership was at Arlington in 1999, Rangers opened up early 3-0 but final score was NYY 25-TEX 3. Most absurd part: The Yankee batters hit a total of 0 home runs.
Was hoping the Cards v Dodgers 2-13 was in this. Was my first baseball game ever, all while in the first day of being in STL. What a comeback and i thought my new baseball team was trash haha
The best thing about that A's 21-3 win over the Angels last year was that Angels catcher Francisco Arcia pitched a couple of the late innings, and then hit a home run in the 9th. I believe he was the first player ever to allow a home run as a catcher, allow a home run as a pitcher, and hit a home run all in the same game.
For how often you bagged on Coors, it only showed up twice, and the Rockies only delivered one of their two beatdowns in their illustrious park. Yes, it's an offensive park but it's becoming a really tired excuse. Several parks give up more homeruns every year (Houston, New York, Cincinnati, Arizona in particularly) and lead in other categories too. Coors leads consistently in one offensive category: singles. It's not the moon.
I remember that Diamondbacks game. 1st baseman Mark Grace pitched that game so everyone wanted to talk about his pitching performance instead of losing the game 19-1.
Reminds me of when I used to play RBI Baseball on the NES. I would sometimes put the difficulty on "easy" just to see how many runs I could score. I cant remember if it was the 1990 AL all star team I used or the 1987 Detroit Tigers, but I racked up some 52 points in 9 innings lol Good times.
I remember the Red Sox losing 22-1 to the Yankees back when I was 6, and I was shocked that a team could even score 20 runs in a game. I had no idea they had a worse loss than that.
2020 Marlins got blown out by 20 runs by Braves 29-9 which would be a run over the one in this video. I know it was made in 2019 just thought I’d let you guys know
My Dad and I were present at the 'Stick when the 'Gints walloped the Cards (revenge for that '87 NLCS defeat), 21-2. Not only did Spier, finishing his career where he started, with SF, hit for the cycle, but a journeyman named Ernest Riles hit the franchise's 10,000 home run. The current overall tally now stands at 13,613, in no small part thanks to Barry Bonds, and almost 92K runs scored. Hoping to at least see 100K runs (since I'm 60, I think I've got a good chance, but given their lack of power since Bonds left, maybe I'll see 15K or even 16K, but 20,000, not too sure, unless they break out the artillery somehow.
Gotta update the Red Sox one, as the Blue Jays almost broke the record for runs by one team in a game. There was an inside the park grand slam by Raimel Tapia, and six players had 3 RBI or more
TRUE Story: I play for a baseball academy owned by Woodall (mentioned 1:30) Edit: the academy is Called Woodall Baseball Academy, located in Madison Wisconsin
That college football blowouts list better have a Rutgers game on there somewhere so I can talk about how I saw Jabrill Peppers destroy Rutgers. I'm thinking 0-12 this upcoming season.
I still thinks it’s funny how the rangers had more innings (5) where they didn’t score a single run and had less hits than runs, but yet they still won by 27 (in the first game of a hot summer double header).
I was the most hated person in LA the day after My A’s punished the Dodgers 🤠🐘🐘💚💛💚💛 so many nasty looks and people talked shit to me at universal studios. LA fans are sooooooooooooo salty.
BlueFlAmeXL Left Pavilion 😂 but I’ve sat at almost every section of dodger stadium. It can be calm and rowdy everywhere, really just depends on the game and how many drunk people show up.
@@catalystv7520 True. I mostly go to Dodger games cause my mom's work are sponsored by them, so we get free tickets to go to a game during the summer and honestly as a Dodger fan, I do hate some parts of the fanbase cause they're so annoying to deal with as I just want to just watch the game without having some dickwad cursing/drinking right near me while it's going on.
