Reed and Bouton spark 22-inning Yankees Tigers epic
An improbable trio dominates a seven hour marathon as Jack Reed hits his first big league homer with a man aboard in the 22nd, Jim Bouton goes seven innings of three-hit relief, and the Yankees edge the Tigers 9-7 in baseball history’s longest game. The win comes amid a slate of AL action including Cleveland over Washington and the Angels sweeping the Twins. The marathon sets no modern major league record but remains a landmark 22 innings in Detroit.
