Historical notes from Major League Baseball recount marathon games and odd records from the 1960s. Highlights include the 22nd inning drama tied to a near 24 inning loop, the 1964 Giants versus Mets marathon of 7 hours 33 minutes over 93 innings, and an errorless game tie.

Other games cited show Minnesota’s 11-5 win over Detroit, Boston beating New York 3-1, Baltimore routing Kansas City 10-2, and Cleveland topping the Angels with strong pitching and clutch hits.
