3-17 to 2-20 is a typical type of score in top level hurling. Three points for a goal so that's a drawn game. Compared to American football there's a lot more ways to score (eg even at mediocre club level you've at least on player on your tean who's got the skill to strike the ball for a point from 65 metres while being tackled) and yet draws are a regular occurance.
US sports tend to be designed to artificially remove draws.
