It’s the highest game score in NPB history but not sure about MLB. -- nm - spamlet Apr 10, 07:58 8
- It's the highest ever in MLB at a 106. Kerry Wood had a 105 with his 1-hit (-2pts), 20K (+20) -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 10, 08:09 7
  - Note: I"m not giving credit for extra innings so there's those crazy games in the past where someone went 15 innings, struck out 7 and had like a 115 -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 10, 08:11 6
    - I love baseball but I have no idea what you two are talking about with game score. -- nm - Krusty Apr 10, 08:45 5
      - It's a Bill James thing -- you start at 50 points, and you get credit for K's and outs and innings pitched while losing points for walks / hits / runs - Will Hunting Apr 10, 08:49 4
        
        Strikeouts are fascist. Throw some ground balls, they're more democratic. -- nm - crash davis Apr 10, 08:55 3
        
        Spoken like a noodle arm. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 10, 08:58 2
        
        This SOB is throwing a two hit shut out and he is shaking me off. -- nm* - crash davis Apr 10, 09:08 1
        
        Why is he calling me meat? I’m the one driving the Porsche. - spamlet Apr 10, 09:49
