(now I know in the case of Colorado 7 is NOT the magic number, so lets just leave their stats out of the AVG.)

There is no magic in baseball.

Tate,

Have no statistics to back it up but I would say "9" is the most common total out there, followed by the "7", someone who tracks this will respond I'm sure.

Looking forward to following your NBA selections next year.

I heard that odd numbers are better than even numbers - for obvious reasons - but I have not tracked it, nor have I seen it tracked by any reliable source.

Total Runs = # of games = %
<=5 runs = 9530 games = 21.5%.
6 runs = 2917 games = 6.5%.
7 runs = 4589 games = 10.4%.
8 runs = 3234 games =7.3%.
9 runs = 4297 games = 9.7%.
10 runs = 2949 games = 6.7%.
11 runs = 3565 games = 8.1%.
12 runs = 2234 games = 5.0%.
13 runs = 2613 games = 5.9%.
>=14 runs = 8322 games =18.8%.

Those are from 1991-2001

Results from 2002 to present should be very similar
