What if it's game seven of the World Series? Do you not try to get on base any way possible? Or do you worry about the opposing team's no hitter?
And thus, if any sporting event is based on the integrity of the two teams doing their best to win the game, why does it really matter if it's the World Series or a regular season game? It's not pro wrestling. There's a pretty good reason why everyone should want each team to play to win at all times, because otherwise it's no longer a sporting event. It's not like clubs have never scored 10 runs in an inning. It's unlikely, but it's not impossible.
