Come Back From Behinds

[Gashouse6]

Tonight, the Orioles rallied in one inning and gained the lead after the Indians had a 4 run lead. What lead do you think is a safe lead for teams nowadays. Iwas thinking back at some of the other big combackers like some that the Indians had a few years ago. Does anyone know the biggest come-back-from-behind victory?

Down 14-2 going into the bottom of the 7th

A couple of years ago, wasn't there a game where the Pirates were down 9-1, and down to their last strike, and came back to win?

Then there's always the scenario where the team is down 3 games to none in a seven game series, behind by a run in the 9th, and facing one of history's best closers. :D

I was at this game in 1989, Red Sox up 10-0 going into the 7th, lost 13-11 in 12.

I was at a Padres game last year when they were down 0-5 in the 9th and came back to win 8-5 in 12 innings. It's not nothing spectacular but I wanted to mention it cause it was a 9th inning comeback.

Didn't the Cardinals score around 10 runs in the 9th against the Reds last year?

I don't remember the opponent, but didn't Seattle once score about 15 runs in the 8th or 9th to win after having been down around 14-0 or something? This happened around 2000 is all that I can remember.

I wonder how the guys in the opposing bullpen must've felt. :D

It was the Indians in 2001 I believe.

Also in Cleveland, but in 1999, the Devil Rays were leading the Tribe 9-0, but the Indians bats erupted and the couldn't be contained, and beat the Rays 20-11.

It's amazing how exciting comeback games are. I remember a few years ago in 2004 the Braves were playing the Orioles and they were down 9-0 and came back and won 10-9. At the time the braves were under .500 for the season and it was July, the game sparked them and they ended up winning 94 games that year.

I remember I played an MVP Baseball game where I was down by 14 in the 9th and ending up winning in extras.

I think my biggest Video Game comeback was 6 on ESPN 2k4.

[efin98]

I remember back in their home opener (http://baseball-almanac.com/box-scores/boxscore.php?boxid=199804100BOS)back in 1998 Boston came from five runs down to score seven runs and win 9-7 against Seattle on a Mo Vaughn home run- with NO OUTS!!!

Who could forget that 20-11 come from behind win by New York last year after being down by double digits mid game...

Video games dont count, I dont want to remember I choked once, in a Bases Loaded Video game I think.

The Lou Pinella Mariners blew alot of leads in the late 90's and the Indians of the Late 90's with Thome and Ramirez were a nightmare with any leads.

How about the Ryne Sandberg game. I've seen it on ESPN Classic before and I recorded it and everytime I watch it I can't do anything but smile. What a great game. our come from behind a few weeks ago at Wrigley against the CArds was pretty cool too.
