Durham and Raleigh played a home and home doubleheader on July 5, 1915. The first game was at Raleigh with the home team winning, 3-2, in 14 innings. The two clubs then journeyed 40 miles to Durham for the second game. This game ended in a 2-2 tie after 21 innings! 35 innings in one day should be a record for Organized Baseball unless someone can come up with a better mark. The two teams made 206 putouts in 376 minutes. That figures to an average of 1:59 per nine inning game, a little faster than they play today.

New Orleans had two minor league teams in 1912. New Orleans was, of course, a long time member of the Southern Association. What is little known is that the city also had a team in the Cotton States League early in the season. This team played 24 games before transferring to Yazoo City.

Mel Parnell pitched for Canton in the Middle Atlantic League in 1942, his second year in the minors. On August 31, he pitched a complete 18 inning game against Zanesville, winning 5-4. He almost won his own game in the 17th. He led off the inning with a single and went to second on a sacrifice. The next batter laced a single, but Mel was thrown out at the plate.

The 1940 Nashville Vols, pennant winners of the Southern Association, did not have much need for a bench. The infield of Mickey Rocco, John Mihalic, Bob Boken and Dick Culler played 148, 147, 149 and 152 games, respectively. The outfield of Gus Dugas (145 G) Oris Hockett (130 G) and Arnold Moser (149 G) was almost as durable. Even their first string catcher, Charlie George got in 120 games.

Bob Riesener, pitching for Alexandria in the Evangeline League in 1957, won 20 games and lost none.

Thus, Lower pitched 14 innings of hitless ball.
