The Milwaukee Brewers put themselves in the record books with a shocking 22-0 beatdown of the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday at American Family Field.
The win is tied for the largest margin of victory in a shutout since 1888, according to Sarah Langs of MLB.com. The Brewers are the third team to post a 22-0 win in that span, joining the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1975 and the Cleveland Indians in 2004. It’s also the largest home shutout in the majors since the New York Giants beat the Buffalo Bisons 24-0 at the Polo Grounds on May 27, 1885, per Langs.
The 22 runs tied Milwaukee’s single-game record from Aug. 28, 1992, in Toronto.
