The Tigers shutout the Rockies 13-0 in the first game of their doubleheader, then the Cubs shutout the Pirates 21-0 in their game at Wrigley Field. It was nice to see some high scores, but it would have been nice if the losing team had contributed.

This is the first time having two shutouts of 13 runs or more since April 7, 2013. That day, the Red Sox shutout the Blue Jays, and the Indians shut out the Rays, both by a score of 13-0. The only other time it happened since 1920 was on August 8, 2012. That day, the Marlins shutout the Mets 13-0 while the Giants downed the Cardinals 15-0. There are still a few games left, so maybe MLB can set a record with a third blowout shutout on the day!

There have now been 338 of these 13+ run shutouts since 1920.
