Dang. They played 33 innings in 8 hours and 25 minutes. It took us 6 hours and 43 minutes to play just 17.

I was thinking the same thing. Definitely says something about how baseball's changed, but I'm too 17'n tired to analysis it.

For some reason, I cut the box score of that game out of the Meridian Star and saved it. I threw it out a couple of years ago when helping my parents move.

Couple of other extra inning games that stand out for me:

- The Rick Camp game - https://www.si.com/mlb/strike-zone/2013/04/26/rick-camp-game-mets-braves-1985-atlanta
- I remember a random Cubs-Dodgers game at Wrigley where Fernando Valenzuela played in the outfield. They would swap him between left/right depending on the batter. https://mlblogsdodgers.wordpress.com/2015/04/10/valenzuela-in-the-outfield-1982/

extrapolating today's pace of play, that would be a 12-14 hour game.
