On June 17, 1953, the Boston Red Sox and Detroit Tigers faced off to play a game of baseball. The Red Sox defeated the Tigers, 17 to 1. Embarrassing as that was, Detroit had a chance to redeem themselves, the very next day. Regrettably for the Tigers, things went from bad to worse. Playing before a sparse crowd of just over 3,000 fans at Fenway Park, the Tigers suffered one of the worst losses in the club’s history.
Not only did they lose the game (23 -3), but they also surrendered an eye-watering 17 runs in the 7th inning alone! To this day, this record still stands as the most runs scored in one inning, in American League history.
What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
Not much really.
