Picket Fence Linescores

Elias Says:
[Cleveland] chipped away at the White Sox on Thursday, scoring single runs in the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th innings to win, 5-4, on Tyler Naquin's sacrifice fly. Only two other teams in major-league history have had a walkoff win by scoring once, and only once, in each of the final five innings in which they batted. The other teams to do that were the Red Sox in 1961 and the Orioles in 2014.
August 18, 2016
White Sox - 300 000 100 - 4  6  1
Cleveland - 000 011 111 - 5 12  0
May 10, 2014
Astros  - 011 000 001 0 - 4 11  0
Orioles - 000 001 111 1 - 5 13  1
July 30, 1961 (Game 1)
White Sox - 151 000 010 0 - 8 12  0
Red Sox   - 000 131 111 1 - 9 14  0
Here is another fun linescore from the 1961 Red Sox season:

June 18, 1961 (Game 1)
Senators - 000 142 005 - 12 13  1
Red Sox  - 000 212 008 - 13 11  1
The Red Sox won the nightcap on another walk-off, winning 6-5 in 13 innings.

And one day after his walkoff sac fly, Naquin hits an inside-the-park HR for another walkoff win.
