> We are using a log of probability for scoring, which gives us negative scores.  
> DisjunctionMaxScorer initializes scoreMax in the score(...) function to zero preventing us from using negative scores.  Is there a reason it couldn't be initialized to something like this:
> float scoreMax = Float.MAX_VALUE * -1;
