Sale just recorded a 19-K game. Meanwhile, in my last game vs. Atlanta, my staff allowed 14 hits and 13 walks, their staff allowed 19 hits and 16 walks in 11 innings. That's 29 walks in a game (final score was 17-10).
The event of a single team allowing 13+ walks in a game has occurred 12 times since 2010, per fangraphs . A 29 walk game is impossible. |
Play out at least a full season before leaping to any conclusions. You can mess around with auto-calc to get whatever league wide run scoring environment you want (provided it has happened IRL).
