The longest professional Baseball game ever played was a 33-inning minor league Baseball affair between the Rochester Red Wings and the Pawtucket Red Sox that took place on April 18, 1981, at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The two teams played deep into the frigid night with no end in sight. The game began just after 8:00 PM local time and continued until 4:07 AM the next morning, when it was paused after 32 innings. (The umpire's rule book was missing the revision that placed a curfew on game length.) On June 23, 65 days later, play resumed. The game was decided after just 18 more minutes as Pawtucket's Dave Koza singled off of Rochester's Cliff Speck to drive in Marty Barrett as the winning run, giving the PawSox a 3-2 victory. The official length of the game is listed as 8:25, also a record.
