Every final score posted during the 1892 Major League Baseball season, tabulated by winning-team runs and losing-team runs.
Baseball games end with a final score, like 8–6. The number across the top is how many runs the winning team scored; the number down the side is how many runs the losing team scored. Where a column and row meet, that square shows how many 1892 games ended with that score — click it to see them.
The 1892 season produced 921 games between 12 clubs, running from April 12, 1892 to October 15, 1892. Those games ended in 132 different final scores, 42 of which occurred exactly once all season. The most common result was 4–3, posted 43 times — 4.7% of the season's games. The season also produced 22 tie games, which sit on the board's diagonal.
Teams combined for 10.19 runs per game in 1892, 0.74 runs above the all-time average of 9.45. That is the 4th-lowest scoring rate among the 30 seasons before 1901. Shutouts accounted for 84 games (9.1% of the total), and 214 of the 899 decided games were settled by a single run (23.8%).
The highest-scoring game of the season came on July 26, 1892, when the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Cincinnati Reds 26–6 — 32 combined runs. The widest margin was 22 runs: the Baltimore Orioles (19th c.) over the Chicago Cubs 23–1 on June 6, 1892.
One final score appeared for the first time in major league history during 1892: 25–4. That square is a true scorigami — across every season played to that point, no game had ever ended on exactly those numbers.
This season sits in the early National League era, before the pitching distance was moved back to its modern 60 feet 6 inches. Scoring ran far higher than it would after 1900.
