 FACT: In their very first game, Gus says that the score is 17 to  nothing. This should not be possible. Richie and Clark are first to  bat, and each get 1 out. Then Gus is up and scores a run. Richie or  Clark have to be up to bat after Gus, so they would score the third  out, therefore causing the end of the inning. In innings 3, 5, 7, &  9 Gus would get two at bats. Assuming the game is 9 innings and the  Benchwarmers are the visiting team and assuming neither Richie nor  Clark reach base the most runs they could score would be 13.
