    How rare is this?

    Today the Cards and Cubs were scoreless through 6
    then the Cards scored 12 runs in one inning
    on 8 extra base hits
    without a single home run

    some of this has to be pretty rare
    1. The more I learn, the more convinced I am that many players are over-rated due to inflated stats from offensive home parks (and eras)

    If this was still the steroids era I'd have a rational explanation for you.

        Cards tied the MLB record for 2B in one inning. Not sure what other records were approached.

        As expected, 3 of the doubles were bloops down the line and were not hard hit and 2 were groundballs past the 3B. Only two were traditional line drive 2Bs. Point? You need some luck for something like that to happen.

          We aren't still in the steroid era?
          "No matter how great you were once upon a time — the years go by, and men forget,” - W. A. Phelon in Baseball Magazine in 1915. “Ross Barnes, forty years ago, was as great as Cobb or Wagner ever dared to be. Had scores been kept then as now, he would have seemed incomparably marvelous.”
