SCORIGAMI: Atlanta Braves 29, Miami Marlins 9 is the first 29-9 game in MLB history
For the first time ever, MLB produced a 29-9 final. Atlanta Braves beat Miami Marlins on September 9, 2020, filling a cell that had stayed empty across 237,666 games.
The league's previous scorigami was 24-12, Cincinnati Reds over Colorado Rockies on May 19, 1999, 21 years and 4 months earlier. This is MLB's 1st new final score of the 2020 season, and the grid now holds 53.9 percent of every realistic final score.
Its closest neighbors show how tight the score space had become: 30-9 had happened 1 time and 29-10 had still never happened. It lands on the high-scoring frontier of the grid, the sparse territory that only fills in on the rare night the points pile up.
