They have a mercy rule. As for teams getting beatdowns of 35-0 and 53-0, it's usually the result of the loser team's inability to get out of its own way and the winning team scores with little effort.
If the Arsenal was stealing home on throwbacks to the pitcher as reported when up by all those runs, then that makes no sense but if they're scoring at will and the other team can't get out of it's own way, the that's the way it goes. The losing team was in over their heads in a tournament.
