Wow that was awesome. Great job man. I can’t imagine poor Fisk catching every inning. That’s crazy
Thanks! And I agree, that would be hard.

I play catcher IRL, and catching 7 innings is pretty difficult for me. Luckily, we got 2 new catchers, so I can play 2B or OF. I couldn't imagine catching 25 innings. I would pass out

@jz2016cubs's random game of the day!
This day was suggested by @KaptinKrunch00, with the year and game picked by @MrGamebred.
June 23, 1922, Cleveland Indians at the Chicago White Sox.
Starting pitching:
Indians: Duster Mails threw 4 innings, giving up 5 hits and 2 runs.
White Sox: Ferdie Schupp went 7 innings giving up 6 hits and 4 runs.Scoring:
The Indians started it off with a bang, taking a 1-0 lead thanks to a RBI single by Smoky Joe Wood. The White Sox tie the game up in the bottom of the 2nd with a RBI single by Johnny Mostil. In the top of the 4th, Larry Gardner hit a sac fly to make it 2-1 Indians, giving them a 58% chance of winning this game. But the White Sox answered right back in the bottom of the 4th with a solo Home Run to deep Left Field off the bat of Earl Sheely. The pitching took control until the top of the 7th when Steve O'Neill hit a two-run double to give the Indians a 4-2 lead.
The White Sox didn't like that though, scoring three runs in the bottom of the 7th, thanks to a sac fly, RBI single, and another sac fly, giving them a 5-4 lead.
The Indians decided to wait until the top of the 9th, with 2 outs, to score, with a RBI double by Les Nunamaker, tying the game at 5 a piece.
With one out in the bottom of the 10th inning, Harry Hooper hit an INSIDE-THE-PARK-HOME-RUN to walk it off!
Even more interesting: According to Baseball Reference, there were no errors on the play...
The White Sox won 6-5.

@jz2016cubs's interesting game of the day!
The longest game ever recorded, time wise, suggested by @thinkbluedgr
May 8-May 9, 1984
SP:
Brewers: Don Sutton went 7 innings, giving up 4 hits and 1 unearned run.
White Sox: Bob Fallon went 6 innings, giving up 1 hit and 1 run.
Other pitchers to note: For the Brewers, Chuck Porter got the loss, and went the last 7.1 innings, giving up 11 hits and 4 runs, 1 of them unearned.
For the White Sox, Juan Agosto went 7 innings, giving up 5 hits and 0 runs. Tom Seaver got the win, going one inning to close out the game.The scoring started in the 6th inning with Tom Paciroek hitting a RBI single to give the White Sox a 1-0 lead. The Brewers responded with a RBI single of their own curtesy of Robin Yount in the top of the 7th.
In the top of the 9th, the Brewers get two runs, thanks to a steal+throwing error, and a RBI single, putting them up 2 going into the bottom of the 9th.
The White Sox tied it up thanks to a RBI double and RBI single by Julio Cruz and Rudy Law.
After 17 innings, the game was suspended with a score of 3-3. (Yes, no one had scored after the 9th)
The game was resumed before the regularly scheduled game the next day.
In the 21st inning, it appeared the Brewers would win after Ben Oglivie hit a three-run homer, but the White Sox answered with three runs of their own, two of them on a Tom Paciorek single. The game continued into the 25th inning.
In the home half of the 25th, with one out, White Sox outfielder Harold Baines homered on the 753rd pitch of the game. The homer gave the Sox a 7-6 win. It also set the record for the latest in a game a player has slugged a home run. Carlton Fisk also set a record by catching all 25 innings.https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHA/CHA198405080.shtml
Mad respect for Fisk, thats a lot of pitches to catch most of them probably 90+ mph. Hardest position in baseball in my opinion and for 25 innings. Just crazy. Truly one of the greatest catchers ever.
