What Was The Biggest "Blown Lead" In The Ninth Inning?

Question

No. I don't know that answer. I'm trying to find out which team blew the biggest lead and lost in the ninth inning of a ball game. Doesn't matter if it was in the majors or in the minors.

Answer 1

Thanks for bringing that up Celtics.

Mota sucks.

Answer 2

IDK if this helps because it doesn't really count, but I remember a game  a couple of years ago, the yankees VS the orials. The O's had a 14 run lead in the ninth and the Yanks scored 13 runs, losing by 1.

Answer 3

I don't know the biggest, but those d**n Me ts blew a nice one the other night versus the Phil lies.  Now that I think about it Cleave land came back from a big defecate against Seattle on a Sunday night game on ESPN several years ago.

Answer 4

This year the Dbacks scored 6 runs in the bottom of the 9th to win. It was crazy. They didnt even record an out.

Answer 5

Statistically speaking, probably not. But emotionally speaking, DEFINITELY. The Mets were on a huge run and now they got the lead and they are looking good to finish off their rival Phillies in the first game of the series and get a leg up on them. Then that happens and it must have crippled them emotionally. They did manage to rebound though.

Answer 6

Red Sox scored 6 in the bottom on the 9th last year against the Orioles on Mother's Day.

Answer 7

The Cleveland Indians trailed the Seattle Mariners 8-1 going into the bottom of the 9th in a 2001 game, then scored 8 runs to win 9-8. This was also the same year Cleveland overcame a 14-2 deficit in the 7th inning against Seattle to win 15-14 in extra innings

Answer 8

Here you go here are the two biggest blown leads in the Ninth inning of a MLB game. I had to do some research on these but i came up with these 2 games

AL -   Cleveland beat Washington 14-13 on May 23, 1901, by scoring 9 runs in the bottom of the 9th inning with 2 outs and no men on base. See: http://tinyurl.com/35c4vv

NL-    August 21,1990 Dodger Stadium Phillies at Dodgers. The Dodgers had an 11-3 lead going to the top of the 9th inning, amazingly the Phillies scored 9 runs (key blast a 3 run homer John Kruk (now an ESPN Baseball Analyst) to take a 12-11 lead. They held the Dodgers scoreless and won 12-11.
