Not according to this:

05/28/2008 1:00 AM ET
PHILADELPHIA -- Only Hall of Famers Ed Delahanty, Nap Lajoie and
Elmer Flick would view the recent spate of Phillies firepower as
good, but not good enough.

After all, those guys did the current team two better, when in
three glorious games in 1900 against the New York Giants --
played at the Baker Bowl and the Polo Grounds -- the Phillies
scored 44 total runs.

Philadelphia will still gladly accept a 42-run blitzkrieg that
produced a three-game winning streak, the most recent a 7-4 win
over Colorado on Tuesday. The team can even accept a 1-hour,
27-minute rain delay, which halted the game on an 0-1 count to
Carlos Ruiz in the eighth.

The Phillies fell two runs short of their modern franchise record
-- 1900 or later -- set April 28, 30 and May 1, 1900, with wins
of 19-1, 14-13 and 11-8 over the Giants. Philadelphia also scored
60 runs in three 1894 games.

No one in the clubhouse seemed to mind.

"More importantly, we got the win," Jimmy Rollins said. "If we
had scored two runs with a win, that would have been just as
satisfying."

Since divisional play began, the most runs scored in three games
is 47. It's been done four times, most recently by the Yankees
July 21-23, 2007. The Red Sox set the all-time record in 1950
with 56.
