It is exceedingly difficult to win a 1-0 game.

1. Not if you have the 1.

2. Well, yes it is easier to win a 1-0 game if you have the 1

but it is also very easy to give up a run and find yourself tied 1-1 in the top of the 9th.

12. Final time - 2 hours 50 minutes.

[Pierre.Suave]

15. I have seen them go much longer before

[KitchenWitch]

18. The Twins have the shortest games in the league both AL and NL

It pisses Ron Gardenhire off that the umpires are always trying to speed him and his other coaches up.

[Pierre.Suave]

19. Really?

[KitchenWitch]

20. I can't find the link at the moment

but I recently read an article that had all of the teams rated average complete game time. The Twins played games like 12-15 minutes faster than the Yankees or Red Sox.

[KitchenWitch]

21. I was wrong about the Twins leading the league in short games

But not by much!

The Angels are fastest at 2:43, the Twins and A's are tied for second fastest at 2:44. The Yankees are slowest at 3:03.
