HA-HA. HE-HE. CHUCKLE-CHUCKLE. HO-HO. SNICKER-SNICKER. 
Phillies 26. Mets 7.

As for two homers in one inning, Von Hayes became the first ever to
do so in the first inning(Ray Knight was last to hit them in the same
inning in 1980; only 21 players have done it in history; quiz: which
player did it twice?). 

Hayes had five RBIs in the first inning, one short of the record.

The record for runs by one team in one game is 29.
