A Truly Dumb Data Table

This is kind of silly, but I can't resist. Sorry.

An old joke: someone (I forget who) used to do a spoof of a sportscast by saying: "And tonight's baseball scores: 4-1, 3-2, 6-0, and 7-2."

In that spirit, here are the final scores of all 162 Blue Jays games this year. That's all. You want to know who they were playing? You want to know who won? Sorry.

I will tell you only how many times this score appeared, and what their record was.

TOTAL		80	82
I think this is just full of weird and goofy stuff. The Blue Jays didn't win a single game by a 5-3 score? And they lost five of them? What's up with that?
