Besides 0-0 what do you think is the most common MLB score?

Wouldn’t 0-1 be more common than 1-1?

Explain 1-1

I mean like you turn a game on and it’s already going. Seems like it’s always 1-1.

Logically, it would be 1-0 by a long shot

If we’re talking final scores, which we aren’t because 0-0 isn’t a final score, I’d think 4-3 is the most common.

Looked it up 3-2 and 4-3 are most common final scores

If that was the case why are team ERAs around 3.5 to 4?

Because he’s asking at any given point in a game. To get to any score, it has to be 1-0 at some point unless the first score of the game is multiple runs. It’s a dumb question.

The average final score of every MLB game ever played at one time was 5-3

May have changed over the last 20 years or so

Not sure

No need to add "in 2026". People do not like questions that require more thought than a what's required of a third grader. Critical thinking is a skill which most people lack.

1-0 at any point
3-2 as final scores (my guess, although 4-3 might be up there).

Even then the score has to be 1-0 before it becomes 2-0, even during the same play

and if it's multiple runs, then it won't be 1-1.

it can NEVER be 1-1 without it being 1-0 first

The OP is not completely out in left field about 0-0 MLB scores, I asked the friendly elves at Grok to research this issue, and this is theie reply:

quote:

Yes, there are records of MLB games ending in a 0-0 tie—66 such games since 1901.

joyofsox.blogspot.com

These were far more common in the early decades of modern baseball (1901–1920 accounted for the large majority), often due to games being called for darkness before stadium lights became widespread, or occasionally for rain. Many went into extra innings as pitchers’ duels; more than 30 were extra-inning scoreless ties.

sabr.org

They became rare after the 1950s as rules and scheduling evolved (suspended games are now usually resumed rather than declared ties), with none in the last several decades under current practices.Examples include:The longest: Brooklyn Dodgers vs. Cincinnati Reds, 19 innings on September 11, 1946, at Ebbets Field (called due to darkness).

sabr.org

An 18-inning one: Detroit Tigers vs. Washington Senators on July 16, 1909 (also darkness).

sabr.org

Another notable: New York Mets vs. Philadelphia Phillies, 18 innings on October 2, 1965 (second game of a doubleheader

The most common final score in MLB history post 1901 is now 3-2. 4-3 then 2-1 are in second and third.
