History
In the known blaseball era, six games not involving a siesta[1] have met the criteria for spillover, and five have triggered the spillover rule:
- (Charleston Shoe Thieves @ Philly Pies; Season 10, Day 27; 64 total minutes[2]
- Mexico City Wild Wings @ LA Unlimited Tacos; Season 15, Day 100; 62 total minutes[3]
- Hellmouth Sunbeams @ Miami Dale; Season 16, Day 16; 61 total minutes[4]
- Core Mechanics @ Hawai'i Fridays; Season 16, Day 36; 63 total minutes[5]
- Miami Dale @ Ohio Worms; Season 18, Day 12; just under 68 minutes[6]
On Season 4 Day 99, the Boston Flowers and the Unlimited Tacos played a 24-inning, 65-minute game. However, as it was the last game on the last day of the season, no effects of spillover occurred. [7]
Currently, no game has ever come close to approaching two hours.
Longest Game Record(s)
On Season 18, Day 12, the Miami Dale and the Ohio Worms played a 24-inning game lasting just under 68 minutes. This game holds the record for longest game by length of time.
On Season 16 Day 36, the Core Mechanics and Hawai'i Fridays played a 28-inning, 63-minute game, triggering a Spillover. This game holds the record for longest game by inning total.
- ↑ Both The Grand Unslam and The Waveback Event saw multiple games crossing the hour-mark threshold after the siesta was lifted, but they did not trigger spillover.
