The Pawtucket Red Sox and Rochester Red Wings, two teams from the triple-A International League, played the longest game in professional baseball history in 1981 at Pawtucket's McCoy Stadium.

The game went 33 innings.

AND, the game featured three RBI'ers.

Boggs, Ripken Jr., and Ojeda (who was the winning pitcher)

33 innings?  you'd think that after about 20 theres a breaking point where a manager/pitcher just says fuck it and wants meat thrown.  but its prolly fun, and there the attitude of fuck this, were are going to win this toment of hell.

I would think, espeically if it is a minor league game, they'd pull a Bud Selig/All Star moment where they didnt want to burn out their young arms and just call it a tie.
