The 22nd game is today's performance by Chicago(A). There are some very memorable games in there, including the 23-22 Phillies/Cubs debacle. Amazingly, though, you can see that no team on this list lost by more than 3 runs. Well, congrats to Ozzie Guillen's crew for shattering that record and losing by 6 runs.
Ouch.
