No. Since 2008 a new rule states that all playoff games shall be played to completion, regardless of the inning or score at the time play was suspended.

How many out and innings are in baseball?

there are 3 outs in each half of an inning, 6 outs total for an inning, and a minimum of 9 innings are played, if the game is tied after 9 innings, they go into extra innings which can go on as many innings until a winner is decided, so you can play for 40 innings or even 100, which is impossible, but then, you never know, lol, the longest game played was 33 innings by the way


Does ERA change if you play 7 innings?

ERA stands for Earned Run Average. The number of innings per game determines how ERA is calcuated. In Major League Baseball they play 9 innings so ERA is calculated with this equation, Earned Runs divided by 9. High School baseball (at least where I am located) plays 7 innings as a regulation length game. In this case a pitcher's ERA is Earned Runs divided by 7. In Little League the a regulation game is 6 innings, so ERA would be determined by Earned Runs divided by 6. If you are playing a game and it goes in to extra innings then a pitcher's ERA is not affected by the extra innings. If a regulation game is 6 innings, and the game goes into the seventh inning, then a pitcher's ERA is still determined by # of earned runs divided by 6. In summary ERA is ALWAYS determined by the amount of Earned Runs allowed divided by the number of innings played (not including extra innings).


How many innings are in a Major League Baseball game?

There are nine innings in a major league baseball game. If the score is tied after nine innings, the game goes into extra innings and continues until one team or the other is ahead after a complete inning. Games can be called anytime on account of rain, darkness, earthquakes, etc. and can be considered complete or continued at a later date depending on the number of innings completed. A complete game requires at least five innings of play so that the losing team has five at-bats.
