Texas Rangers beat Baltimore Orioles 30-3

When the Baltimore Orioles led the game 3-0 in the 3rd, I'm sure they were thinking they were on their way to a win.

The Rangers had other plans.

Scoring five runs in the fourth, nine in the sixth, 10 in the eighth and six in the ninth, the Rangers scored the most runs in a game since Chicago set the major league record in a 36-7 rout of Louisville in a National League game on June 28, 1897.

The game was the first in a doubleheader and set a record for the number of runs scored in a two-gamer ----- before the second game was even played.

The Rangers hit 2 grand slams and two players(the bottom two players in the lineup, no less) with two home runs each.
