Question
A friend of mine want to bet me that 20 runs were scored by one team more than 10 times last year. It can be any one team and the same team could have done it more than once. Would you know this info or where I could find it without checking every score from last year. This is for all of major league baseball......Thanks Mike

Answer
Good question. I do remember alot of runs scored last year, most runs scored in a single game was set by Texas last year with 30 setting a modern day record, surpassing the mark of 29 runs that were scored by the Red Sox (June 8, 1950) and White Sox (April 23, 1955). It's the second-most runs all-time as the Chicago Colts (now the Cubs) scored 36 against the Louisville Colonels on June 29, 1897.
As far as your question goes, I am not sure. I guess the only way to figure that out would be to check all the boxscores. I tried to research it but I could not find anything. Sorry I could not help you further. If I had to guess, I would say that did not happen. Good luck.
