The last place Texas Rangers scored 30 runs in yesterday's game to defeat the Orioles in the first game of a double-header, 30 to 3. They got 29 hits. In one game. The 30 runs were a Major League record. Since I root for the lowly, last place Devil Rays, I suggest a Major League rules change. We should handicap games. Texas should be able to sell all the runs they didn't need yesterday (26 by my count) to the Devil Rays, to be used as needed everytime the Rays have to play the Yankees or the Red Sox. This rule should apply every time a team loses by more than ten runs, or is in last place at the start of the game. There. You want parity? Here's a beginning.
