In the inning for the Twins, six runs on one hit. There were no Toronto errors,

and one man was left on base.

You read that correctly!

It was like something out of a Little League game: The Toronto Blue Jays blew a 5-3 eighth-inning lead against the Minnesota Twins on Thursday after giving up — are you ready for this? — six runs on eight walks, three wild pitches and a single hit.

One hit, six runs. That math shouldn't even compute. That's how epic of a bullpen catastrophe this was for Toronto. Three Blue Jays pitchers were part of the eight-inning abomination, including Sergio Santos, who let three consecutive runs score on wild pitches.

This is how the inning went down in the scorebook: walk, walk, sac bunt, walk, wild pitch (first run scores), walk and wild pitch (second run scores), walk and wild pitch (third run scores), walk, walk (fourth run scores), single (fifth and sixth runs score), walk, strike out, ground out.

Sheesh. You almost have to give the Blue Jays props for that. It's so bad it's spectacular.

Actually, most Little League games I've seen have been far better played than that.

1. I didn't realize a wild pitch wasn't an error!

Is that also true of a passed ball?

[KamaAina]

2. It is.

An error is made on a ball in the field of play.

3. I learn!

Thank you.

4. And you read and respond to baseball threads!

Even somewhat arcane ones.
