The longest game that ever played in the baseball in history is listed below:
Home team: Brooklyn Dodgers
Visitors: Boston Braves
Date: May 01 1920
Innings: 26
The game was called due to darkness, as they didn't have lights way back then, resulting in a 1 - 1 tie and going down in history as the longest game by innings.
Also, there's a current game just about 20 years ago that came close to the one above:
Home team: Chicago White Sox
Visitors: Milwaukee Brewers
Date: May 09 1984
Innings: 25
Length: 8 hours & 6 minutes
The game began on May 08 but according to MLB rules an inning cannot begin after 12:59 AM so the players and fans had to come back the next day.
The overall game time was 8 hours 6 minutes with Chicago finally winning 7- 6 on Harold Baines' home run in the 25th inning, one inning short of the record, but still the longest game based on time.
The longest scoreless game in MLB history was on April 15, 1968 when the Mets and Astros went 23 scoreless innings. The Astros won the game 1-0 in the 24th inning
