    19 innings, including over 9 without a score would test the patience of even the most loyal fan of the sox

    It’s the Anaheim Angels not the LA Angels, very sensitive about that over here.

    You’re quite wrong. Changed their name to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim back in 05. The team goes by the LA Angels for short.

    You can’t end a game on a draw. So they play extra innings until someone scores an unanswered run. A usual game is nine innings.
