Haha! It's like hitting a jackpot on your first ever slot machine spin!

[@smittykins]

The article about the Phillies-Cubs game in my area’s daily newspaper began with “The Cubs scored 22 runs, and they STILL couldn’t win.”

[@aaronscarpa7469]

I’m sure it was for somebody.

My best friends first hockey game was a 13-4 blowout (sphl record for goals)

Or the 2008 Auburn/Mississippi State game. It was 3-2.

[@mattczech1473]

This is a certified Iowa Hawkeyes classic, but my personal favorite is the Iowa-South Dakota State game that was 7-3. At least Iowa got a touchdown, right? Wrong, field goal and two safeties.

[@justanotherbob69]

Can't wait for the holy grail of scorigami to happen: 4-4

[@hiimemily]

​@@justanotherbob69 10-1 too. My most irrational fear is that we'll one day see a game where that score shows up, only for the trailing team to kick a field goal and give us a non-Scorigami 10-4 final.

“Crybabies and quitters when the going gets tough” by 1940 standards is an absolute BODY of an insult

[@psymar]

In American Samoa's defense, their regular team had some snafu getting their visas to enter Australia, and their U-21 team had final exams, so that was a bunch of high schoolers they sent to lose 31-0. Also, 12 years later, the goalie on that team was also their goalie in their first-ever international win.

[@samdash4706]

I always think of Game 3 of the 1998 NBA Finals in which the Chicago Bulls beat the Utah Jazz 96-54. The 54 points at the time was the lowest score by an NBA team since the shot clock had been introduced in 1954. The Bulls won the series 4 games to 2. What made Game 3 particularly weird was that every other game in the series was close. The Bulls' three other wins were by five, four, and one points respectively.

[@nyanbinaryDC]

There is an even crazier cricket score! In Don Bradman's debut test match in 1928, Australia lost by 675 (!!) runs to the English side

[@smoceany9478]

imagine losing by 675 with donald fucking bradman

[@slaymyface1357]

Funniest part is the rangers vs Orioles game is that despite it being a 30-3 game...the rangers pitcher Wes Littleton recorded a save in that game because he pitched the final three innings of the game and wasnt the winning pitcher

[@aznpikachu215]

Another weird score was the Chicago Bulls had their fewest points in a game versus the Heat on April 10, 1999, with 49 points vs. Miami Heat's 82. 49 points? In a NBA game? Or probably the more recent Dolphins winning 70-20 vs. Denver Broncos. Ugh...That stung for me.

[@matteoairaghi790]

I'm surprised you didn't include the longest tennis match in history. At Wimbledon 2010, a first round match finished 70-68 in the fifth set lasting 3 days

[@susanbotsford9995]

Was hoping to see the 74-72 7OT Texas A&M LSU game, or the 77-63 SMU Houston game from last year for NCAAF. For NCAAM the 7OT 75-73 Cincy-Bradley game or the more recent 6OT 127-117 Top-20 Jim battle of Boheim's 'Cuse and Calhoun's Huskies. For more NFL you could cover the worst (only a safety) loss of 45-2 form 1953, the highest coring total of 72-41, the only 4 point final of 10-4 from almost exactly 100 years ago, the highest scoring NFL ties 43-43 before the rule change and 37-37 after. Or of course the 3rd-highest scoring game ever, the 54-51 Rams Chiefs game of 2018 (same year as LSU/A&M).

[@darvish2012]

Your delivery with the 2000 us open was pretty good. The first thing that I caught was you said "round" when it should've been a "tournament". For the second is a bit more complicated, but there are different levels of tournaments on the PGA Tour and the most famous ones (including the US Open) are called "Majors".

[@FicoCS2]

Ah ok fair enough. Thanks for the feedback!

[@albertmiller2electricbooga897]

Geelong Cats beating Melbourne Demons 233-47 in the AFL was pretty historic, highest score in the 20-minute quarter era

[@emceen8566]

Kudos. It's rare an American sports channel uses the words "in Sports" to mean "in world sports" as opposed to "in the NFL, NCAA, NHL and MLB".

Fun fact, the 30-3 game was the first game of a doubleheader, the Rangers would win the second game as well 9-7 to give them a final score of 39-10 for the day

[@aaronholcomb237]

Another strange NBA score was 124-59 involving the Pacers and Trail Blazers. I think it's the only time in NBA history where the winning team scored more than twice as much as the losing team.

Batting more than a hundred runs in Cricket is not rare for one batsman and is referred to a scoring a century.

[@mcdonalds5972]

Out in the Australian country in 1990, a local Australian rules match featured Campbell's Creek beating Primrose. Typically, a good team averages somewhere between 13 and 20 goals in a game. Well, Primrose were the American Samoa of their competition and were copping sound 50 to 70 goal defeats, sometimes without even scoring. On this particular day, Campbell's Creek put up 100 goals and 34 behinds for a total of 634 points. The previous record score anywhere in the country was a measly 499 set in 1986. By halftime, the Creek had put up 45 goals, and Primrose's players, many of whom had already played a full reserves game earlier, and some who had already played an under 17's game BEFORE that one, reportedly had to be convinced to continue playing. And who would blame them, when a few of their players were literal teenagers playing in their third match that Saturday? Early into the last quarter, the scoring record had easily been beaten and the only thing the locals cared about by that time was whether their club would reach the legendary 100 goal mark. The game had run on so long that the sun was quite literally on the verge of disappearing in the final quarter, so the viewers got into their cars and put on the headlights in lieu of floodlights. The Creek managed to reach 100 goals with just 6 seconds left. Legend says that when the result was telephoned to the state newspaper, the guy there had to call the club back and ask them if that was a legitimate score. The result was briefly positive for Primrose because people saw the headlines and actually came down to play for the club. Don't get me wrong though, they were still being pummelled weekly. Primrose ultimately folded four years later when they couldn't get more players. Ironically, Campbell's Creek today are now the American Samoa of their competition and frequently lose by 30 to 40 goals. Since that day in 1990, the 634 score is far and away the highest recorded in a game (some will mention a certain 687 from 1983, but that was a junior game), with the next highest being 535 set on two occasions, then a 515, then 499 twice. Yeah, a 499 score was recorded again...by Campbell's Creek...against Primrose...in 1993.

In 1970 the Cowboys had 2 classics. In the next to last game of the regular season they beat the Browns 6-2 in the "Astro mud" of Municipal Stadium. In the divisional round against the Lions they won 5-0. In November 1966 we saw the Redskins beat the Giants 72-41. My mother and grandmother attended the game with us. It was the only Redskins game they attended.

Largest wins and losses in all through every college football history and I bet you'll find some oddball scores you couldn't believe and teams that you wouldn't believe the teams played too

[@emeraldaly7646]

So in cricket, a score like "260-6" is actually just one team's score (read verbally as "two sixty for six"). The first number is their runs, the second number is how many wickets they've lost (batsmen dismissed). At the end of a cricket match, you say how many runs the winning team won by, if the team batting first wins. If the team batting second wins, the match is over the moment they have 1 run more than the team batting first, so their margin of victory is stated in terms of how many wickets they still had before being all out.

Weirdest hockey score to me has to be the Slovakia women's hockey team beating Bulgaria in an Olympic qualifying match 82-0. Not only did Bulgaria not score, they didn't even get a single shot on goal as the final shot count was 139-0. There were a number of factors that went into the match being so lopsided but... yeah. 82-0. In hockey.

The professional box lacrosse records are actually ridiculous though: Most goals: Nov. 21 2001 Calgary Roughnecks vs Montreal Express 32 - 17 road win for Montreal Least goals: Jan. 11 2001 Toronto Rock vs Albany Attack 7-4 home win for Toronto (I think this is bullshit because there’s just no way two teams didn’t combine for less than 11 goals in a league that’s existed since 1989). Apparently nobody has ever got a shutout either, not even a 1er on the board; as the lowest goal tally ever recorded in pro box lacrosse has been 2 goals by one team (tied multiple). I also think that one is bogus as well.

[@zacharyjeffares8158]

That Rangers vs Red Wings game is more absurd than you might realize: The Rangers managed 9 shots the entire game - that’s 3 shots per period. The Rangers Goaltender Ken Mccauly made 53 saves along with the fifteen goals allowed. If you want more ridiculous hockey scores Five Points Videos made a video about this game and four others in the worst beat downs in hockey history. For the low scorers out there here is one legendary contest: Montreal Maroons vs Detroit Red Wings March 12, 1936 1-0 Detroit overtime victory after 116 minutes of overtime (6 OT periods) the Detroit goaltender got a 92 save shutout
