Does anyone know what the longest ever baseball game was? I've heard that they can go on for a pretty long time.

The record for Major League Baseball was set on May 9, 1984, when Chicago (Cubs) beat Milwaukee 7-6. The game lasted 25 innings, over 8 hours and 6 minutes.
And yes, I Googled it.

Good job, as it wasn't common knowledge. That's a long game, equivelant to almost three of them.
