I watched through the 14th inning, which put me to bed a little after midnight. Obviously the score was still tied. They played almost a complete whole baseball game after that. Amazing! Daily Camera coverage here.
The 6-hour, 16-minute-game broke Rockies records 5 hours, 20 minutes and 18 innings in a 2-1 loss to Arizona at Coors Field on Aug. 15, 2006. The Rockies also set club records for at-bats (73), times struck out (20) and innings worked by the bullpen (15). Taveras set an individual Rockies record with 10 at-bats.
It was the longest game in Padres history and the longest major league game since Minnesota’s 5-4, 22-inning win against Cleveland at the Metrodome on Aug. 31, 1993, according to Elias Sports Bureau.
There was a seventh-inning stretch, a 14th-inning stretch and a 21st-inning stretch.
Unbelievable and way to go Rockies!
