The Yankees’ and Twins’ affiliates in the Dominican Summer League combined for one of the most absurd displays in the history of professional baseball on Wednesday, with the Yankees scoring a whopping 38 runs.
That is, unsurprsingly, a record for all of affiliated baseball, beating the MLB record of 30 runs set by the Rangers in 2007. (The Twins, meanwhile, scored just twice.)
The DSL is made up of players as young as 17 so this is barely professional baseball, but it’s still amazing to look at this box score. Here are a few things that pop out:
• Every player in the Yankees lineup recorded at least two hits, including two pinch hitters.
