To solve the question, let's first understand the problem and the given data.

We have the runs scored by the Tigers and the Dodgers over 9 innings:

- Runs scored by the Tigers: 120302122
- Runs scored by the Dodgers: 004120100

Now, let's summarize the steps to find the difference in runs between the two teams:

1. Calculate the total runs scored by each team.
- For the Tigers:
[tex]\[ 1 + 2 + 0 + 3 + 0 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 13 \][/tex]
- For the Dodgers:
[tex]\[ 0 + 0 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 0 = 8 \][/tex]

2. Find the difference in total runs scored by the two teams.
- Difference:
[tex]\[ 13 - 8 = 5 \][/tex]

3. Determine how many runs the Dodgers were defeated by.

The total runs scored by the Tigers is 13, and the total runs scored by the Dodgers is 8. The Tigers defeated the Dodgers by 5 runs.

So, the correct answer is B. 5 runs.
