SBa Scorigami - The Beauty in Blowouts

In the realm of sports, where rules, strategies, and outcomes often follow familiar patterns, there exists a phenomenon that challenges the norm and brings a fresh perspective to the game. Welcome to the world of Scorigami, a concept popularized by the creative mind of Jon Bois. In this verison of Bois' materpiece, we delve into the captivating world of Scorigami, where final scores become more than just numbers – they become milestones of unpredictability.

Scorigami isn't about who wins or loses; it's about the final scores that have never been seen before in the history of a sport. Originating from the realm of NFL games, Scorigami takes the mundane act of recording a score and transforms it into an exciting quest for unique combinations. Jon Bois' fascination with these one-of-a-kind outcomes gave birth to a trend that has since captured the imagination of sports enthusiasts worldwide.

At its core, Scorigami is a celebration of the unexpected. It's the position-player-pitching that shifts the balance, the clutch stolen base that defies conventional wisdom, or the late-game x-check that leaves fans astounded. These moments don't just alter the course of the game; they reshape the landscape of possibilities, proving that even in a structured sport, innovation knows no bounds.

Well enough history and background, lets get to the fun stuff!

As of writing this, there have been 5034 games recorded in the league and 175 unique results. Of those 175 unique results, here are a few fun facts:

Of all results over the past 7+ seasons, over 42% of games have been won with 5 or less runs scored by the winning team. 82% of games have remained in single digits by either team.

The highest scoring game in league history occurred back in week 4 of season 3 when Cosa Nostra walloped the Wooloomooloo Wombats by a score of 32 to 8.

The only game in league history where both teams reached 15+ runs occurred in final week of season 5 when Monterey and Columbus had an absolute barn burner resulting in a 19-18 victory for the Los Muertos de Monterey

One-Run ballgames have accounted for just under 29% of all results.

There have been 24 different results that have been achieved at least 69 times so far.
