The marathon Red Sox world series game last night went 18 innings (twice the usual #) and took 7 hours and 20 minutes, finishing about 3:30 am ET. My favorite bit of history from mlb.com: “To put the time it took to play Game 3 in perspective, consider this note from STATS: The entire 1939 World Series finished in less time, wrapping up in a tidy seven hours, five minutes. The Yankees swept the Reds…, with none of the four games lasting longer than two hours, four minutes.”

I fell asleep during the 11th inning. It is nerve wracking!
