    I think it was ssomething like 15-2 and the 2 team come back and won because of 3 grandslams. something like that

  2. wooleybooley says:

    Can’t remember the teams, score was something like 15-1, the team with 1 won 16-15. Pro baseball.

    1975 World Series come backs from both Cincy and Boston

    There are a few that have happened recently that come to mind

    The D-Backs come from behind victory against Mariano Rivera’s Yankees in game 7 of the 2001 World Series.

    The Angels come from behind victory against the Giants to win game 6 of the 2002 World Series which gave them the momentum to take game 7.

    The come from behind of the Red Sox against the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS game 4 and ultimately winning 4 straight games. The Yankees had a 3 game lead.

  5. David Americo Ortiz says:

    recently wen the yankees posada helped the yankees score 9 runs then hit a walk of home run. damn yankees.

  6. BroadwayPhil says:

    I recall a very sad day in 1969 at the Astrodome when the Mets gave up 10 runs with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning and thus lost to the Astros. The Mets’ mystique that year had no effect on their expansion counterpart, who took 10 out of their 12 games, including all six in Houston. The Astros added insult to injury as in the second game of the doubleheader they scored 10 runs with two outs in the bottom of the fourth. When the smoke cleared, the Mets had fallen from second place to fourth. Thank God they were headed home to Shea and a visit from the Padres!

    2001 when the idians overcame a 12-run deficit to win it against seattle

  8. camdogydog says:

    Even though it was seven games, the 2004 ALCS where the Red Sox came back to beat the Yankees was the best comeback in baseball history, in my opinion.

  9. gr8leaf says:

    1993 Blue Jays were losing 14-5 in the 8th and came back to defeat the Phillies 15-14 in 9 innings

    a couple year ago the Indians were playing the Mariners…they were losing by 13 in the bottom of the ninth and came back to win….that was an amazing comeback

  12. krw_33 says:

    cleveland went they came back from 15

  13. tburgtbone06 says:

    On August 5, 2001, the Indians were losing 12-0 by the 3rd inning. They stated the comback in the 7th by scoring 3 runs in the 7th, 4 in the 8th and 5 in the 9th to tie the game at 14. In the bottom of the 11th…

    INDIANS 11TH: Diaz popped to shortstop; Lofton singled to
    center; Vizquel singled to right [Lofton to second]; Cabrera
    singled to left [Lofton scored, Vizquel to second]; Indians
    first time since 1925 A’s to come back from a 12-run
    deficit; 1 R, 3 H, 0 E, 2 LOB. Mariners 14, Indians 15.

  14. madamtortuga says:

    i yhink thr biggest comeback was last year 2005 for the houston astros. everyone thought htey were out of the running for the penantbut they won the playoffs and ended up in the wotld series. so i think they deserve the honor of having the best comeback,

  15. psb22855 says:

    1911 Tigers were down 13-1 and ended up winning 16-15 over the White Sox

  16. xshook says:

    I’m with Ocab 18 on this. It is defintetly the come from behing series win of Red Sox-Yankees World Series.

  17. walterfeeser@sbcglobal.net says:

    They havent yet made a big comback as a team, they’re all big cry babies about money they’re not playing for love of the game!

  18. Daniel Z says:

    The Red Sox 3 games to 1 deficit in the 2004 ALCS. Has never ever been done before in baseball! Truly the BIGGEST CHOKE by the YANKEES in the history of sports!

  19. John says:

    In the minors in the early 70’s a team (I think the Spokane Indians) was down 15-0 after 4 1/2 and came back to win, something like 23-22 I think. Wild game.
