Is there a built-in function or some other way to limit the value of numbers in MySQL?

For example, let’s say I have a table with the following rows:

score
=====
5
10
20
50
3
15

I’d looking for some type of query along the lines of…

SELECT NUMBER_LIMITER(score, 10) FROM ScoresTable

…which would return the following result…

score
=====
5
10
10
10
3
10

If not, I’ll write a function. Just hoping there might be something built-in as performance is quite important for this project. Thanks!
