At Shibe Park in what looks like a football score, the Boston Red Sox overpower the Philadelphia A’s, 22 – 14

On June 29, 1950 At Shibe Park in what looks like a football score, the Boston Red Sox overpower the Philadelphia A’s, 22 – 14 in Philadelphia, the third time this month they’ve scored 20 or more runs. The 36 runs establish an American League mark for runs scored by two teams. Both teams match a major league record they set in 1901 for most players scoring two or more runs (Boston, 9: Philadelphia, 4). Overall, pitchers give up 21 walks in the debacle. Despite the high score, only one home run is hit – by Ted Williams in a game one newspaper calls “a two hour and 50 minute marathon.” The previous record of 35 runs was set by the same two clubs in 1901: Boston 23, A’s 12. The major league mark is 49 by the Cubs and Phillies on August 25, 1922.
