The Baltimore Orioles were leading the game 3-0 entering the top of the 4th inning. That's when the slaughter started. This was only the 9th time in Major League Baseball history that team scored 30 or more runs in a game. The feat hadn't been accomplished since the Chicago Colts set the major league mark in a 36-7 win over Louisville in a National League game on June 28, 1897. Ramon Vazquez and Jardo Saltalamacchia both had two homers and 7 RBIs. Travis Metcalf and Marlon Byrd both hit grand slams. The Rangers are the first team with four players with four RBIs since the Phillies did it on May 17, 1979. Unfortunately for the Orioles, it's a double header tonight. Good luck Orioles, you're going to need it.
