this record is in jeopardy:

April 14, 1925: Indians 21, Browns 14
The Indians became the highest-scoring team in an Opening Day game back in 1925. That April 14, the Tribe opened the season with a 21-14 win over the St. Louis Browns, and boy was the game wild. The score doesn't even tell the tale.

This was no blowout win for Cleveland. It was a back-and-forth affair that saw the Indians jump out to a 7-1 lead, only for the Browns to rally to tie the game at 9 by the fifth inning. St. Louis scored four more times in the sixth to take a 13-9 lead ... and then the fun really began. The Indians scored 12 runs in the top of the eighth, with the go-ahead blow a three-run homer off the bat of Hall of Famer Tris Speaker. But maybe the strangest part of the game? The Browns committed a whopping 10 errors -- tying the Major League record for a single game -- including five in the 12-run eighth. Eleven of those runs were unearned.
