The New Hampshire Fisher Cats, the Toronto Blue Jays' Double-A affiliate, scored 10 runs in the second inning of a game against the Portland Sea Dogs, the Eastern League affiliate of the Boston Red Sox, without recording a single base hit. The Fisher Cats' scoring explosion was fueled by eight walks, two hit batters, and four wild pitches by Portland's pitchers.

Why it matters

Scoring 10 runs in an inning without a hit is an extremely rare occurrence, even at the minor league level. This highlights the unpredictable nature of baseball and the importance of pitching control, as well as the ability of a team to capitalize on their opponent's mistakes.

The details

The Fisher Cats fell behind 2-0 early in the game, but then scored their first eight runs in the second inning without recording a single base hit. The inning unraveled quickly for the Sea Dogs' pitchers, with starter Hayden Mullins issuing two walks and a wild pitch, followed by reliever Jorge Juan hitting a batter with the bases loaded and throwing another wild pitch. Cade Feeney then took the mound and finally stopped the bleeding, but not before the Fisher Cats had scored 10 runs on just one hit.
