The term 'unanswered run' means one team scored and the other team has not scored any runs afterwards. For example, let's say the home team scored one run in the second inning, two runs in the third inning, and one run in the fourth inning while the visiting team has been held scoreless after scoring one run in the first inning. You might hear an announcer say "The home team has scored four unanswered runs after the visiting team scored in the first inning'.
