As best as I can tell, 35 World Series have ended in a 4 games to three victory. This happened every year from 1955 to 1958. In 1920, the series ended at 5 games to 2 (it was a nine-game series); so I suppose that counts.

∙ 14y agoAn example might be a double header. In some leauges two 9 inning games are to much for the players. Therefore they only play 7 innings.
seven innings
There is a total of nine innings in a game of baseball. However, if the game is tied at the end of nine innings, then the game can go into extra innings.
The ten by seven rule was utilized mostly in little leagues and pee wee baseball.
Except in rare occasions when a time limit is agreed to, baseball is not determined by a time clock like basketball, football, soccer, etc., but on number of "innings", generally nine innings, but an official game must be at least seven innings (or 61/2 innings if the home team is ahead).
Yes if it is tied after 9 innings.
innings
7 innings
There are 9 regulation innings. It can go into extra innings if the score is tied.
It was 33 innings
9 innings
The game goes into extra innings, beginning with the 10th inning and continues, playing full innings until the score is no longer tied. Sometimes the game will need to be post-phoned on account of time restraints, usually to be resumed the next day/night.
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
