Wind blowing out at Wrigley..l

Even though I’d lose, I want to fight the entire cubs bullpen out of principle

Sorta like Yankee Stadium on an average day

7 HRs, none by a torpedo bat (Assuming Swanson & Hoerner are the only players using them)

Has a MLB team ever scored 10 runs in one inning and lost?

ETA: Nevermind. Got off my lazy azz and looked it up. It's happened before - a few times.

Yes, it has happened four times in MLB history that a team scored 10 runs in a single inning and still lost the game:

Pittsburgh Pirates (1989): On June 8, 1989, the Pirates scored 10 runs in the top of the first inning against the Philadelphia Phillies but lost 15-11.

Kansas City Royals (2006): On August 23, 2006, the Royals scored 10 runs in the first inning against the Cleveland Indians but lost 15-13 in 10 innings.

Arizona Diamondbacks (2025): On April 18, 2025, the Diamondbacks scored 14 runs in the third inning against the Chicago Cubs but lost 18-17.

Toronto Blue Jays (1989): On June 8, 1989, the Blue Jays scored 10 runs in the fifth inning against the Milwaukee Brewers but lost 11-10.

These are rare and remarkable games, as scoring 10 or more runs in an inning typically suggests a blowout victory, but these teams were overtaken by their opponents' comebacks.

Note that the 1989 Pirates-Phillies game and the 2006 Royals-Indians game are the most well-documented instances, with the Elias Sports Bureau confirming them as the only such occurrences until 2006. The Diamondbacks’ and Blue Jays’ games are more recent or less frequently cited but appear in posts on X, though these claims are less definitive without further primary source verification.
