The Blue Jays scored 28-5 over the Boston Red Sox in Fenway:

Yes, Raimel Tapia scored an inside-the-park grand slam in the third inning after Jarren Duran was being airheaded! It's the second one in Blue Jays history (the first was in 1989 by Junior Felix, also against the Red Sox in Fenway).
During the fifth inning, a pop up fly ball fell in front of Kevin Plawecki and the Red Sox defence simply looked at the ball despite it being an otherwise very easy out to end the Blue Jays’ half of the inning. The Blue Jays scored 10 runs for the rest of the inning instead, proving that much of the Red Sox defence was airheaded that night.
It's the game with the most Blue Jays runs in history, as well as the game with the most runs the Red Sox had given up in their history, stretching back to 1901.
The Blue Jays scored the fifth most runs in MLB history (two runs short of the modern MLB record (Texas Rangers beating the Baltimore Orioles with a score of 30-3 in Camden Yards in Baltimore on August 22, 2007)).
Here is a condensed version of the epic Blue Jays game against the Red Sox:
Even the Red Sox broadcasters called their own team embarassing.

Blue Jays' epic Red Sox beatdown reinforces belief in unleashing potential
The numbers are dazzling. Six RBIs each for Raimel Tapia and Danny Jansen, who hit a pair of homers and along with Teoscar Hernandez and Santiago Espinal, each reached base in four consecutive plate appearances. Every starter had at least two hits and two RBIs.
