Things were incredibly easy for the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night.
They rolled to a dominant 22-0 win over the Seattle Mariners in what ended up being a blowout that Major League Baseball hasn't seen in well over a century.
That matched the largest shutout win in MLB history since the start of the 1888 campaign, according to MLB's Sarah Langs. A 22-0 win has only been seen twice since then, first by the Pirates in 1975 and by Cleveland in 2004, though both of those were done on the road.
A larger home blowout dates back to 1885, when the Giants picked up a 24-0 win. The Philadelphia Quakers also grabbed a 24-0 win in 1887, but that was on the road, too.
The Brewers had 22 total hits in the win on Tuesday, and had built up a 13-0 lead through seven innings. They dropped five runs in both the fifth and sixth innings, thanks in part to home runs from Christian Yelich, David Hamilton and Jake Bauers.
