Extra Innings

📖

Definition

Definition: Innings played after the regulation game ends (typically the 7th inning) because the score is tied. Rule/Context Note: Many leagues use the "International Tie-Breaker" rule in extra innings, placing a runner on second base to start the inning. When It Matters: Tournament game management, maintaining game pace. Interlinks: Game Length • Mercy Rule • International Tie-Breaker
