Fisher Cats Score 10 Runs on One Hit in Historic Minor League Inning

The New Hampshire Fisher Cats, the Double-A affiliate for the Toronto Blue Jays, have accomplished an extraordinary baseball feat.

In a game against the Portland Sea Dogs, the Fisher Cats exploded for 10 runs in the second inning. Remarkably, this scoring surge came on just one hit and without any errors. The inning was largely fueled by Portland pitchers issuing eight walks and hitting two batters, compounded by four wild pitches and a sacrifice fly.

This rare offensive display occurred in frigid conditions, with temperatures near freezing and snow cleared from the field earlier in the day. The unprecedented inning saw Portland pitchers lose control, walking batters and uncorking wild pitches that allowed New Hampshire to build a significant lead. The Fisher Cats ultimately won the game 12-7.

This scoring anomaly is reportedly the first of its kind in the post-expansion era of Major League Baseball affiliates, highlighting a truly unique moment in minor league baseball history.
