Longest game I've seen, we pulled out the win although I didn't play it out..55 LOB is just ugly

Whats your Longest Game?

ThatSeventiesGuy · 12-19-2014, 05:08 PM

19 innings is the longest I've seen. I only knew about it when OOTP sent me a message about a guy getting 5 hits...and he went 5-for-8! So I checked the game, and it went 19.

In this game, one player on my team went 7 for 10 thats the only reason I noticed it

I think 7 hits is almost as rare an occurence in OOTP as 4 homers. I've never seen it in my leagues, and only once have I seen 4 home runs.

I've seen 4 homers twice and 7 hits twice I believe

I just had a 30 inning game a couple days ago:

This game ended in a 2 run 27th inning

I'd almost forgotten about this one: Turns out I have had a game go more than 19 innings...in what was only my London Doctors' fifth game ever! A real heartbreaker of a loss, as it spoiled ten innings of five-hit, shutout work by William Hartnell. "Now see here, young man...do I have to do everything around here?" XD

I don't think I've ever seen 4 HRs ( incidentally, Markus once posted that he had ARod hit 5 HRs in a default league once

). I think I've had 7 hits in a similar situation to the one mentioned, but not very often.

Could be argued that Moreno was left in too long, although at that point I'm not sure you can complain unless you want your rotation ruining for a week.

Yeah, Moreno was supposed to start the next day. I had to call a guy up from AAA to make the start. All of my relievers pitched in that game. Moreno really took one for the team. IRL he would have never been put in that game. Probably would have been a position player pitching after Anderson (who is a LOOGY) ran out of gas.

To this effect, in my fictional league, I actually give a guy the number 6 or 7 whenever he hits one of the in game milestones as well as for home runs and strikeouts. Basically whatever the major accomplishments that I feel are worthy for a nickname change or supreme recognition.
