How long do baseball games last?

Question

I have to go to one tomorrow when I'd rather go watch my boyfriend perform with the school's jazz band. But they're performing three hours after the game starts...will I be able to make it?

Answer 1

9 innings, about 3 hours, unless there is a tie and it goes into extra innings.

Answer 2

9 innings is how long a game last there is not set time for a game. Some games have been know to go longer than 9 innings because if it is a tie after 9 innings are over they keep playing more until they get a winner.

Time-wise though it will be about 3 hours

Answer 3

On average a 9 inning baseball will take about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to finish. That is if there is no extra innings.

Answer 4

games take like 2 1/2- 3 hours.... or more depends

Answer 5

First off if it is a major league game then it will last over 3 hours and with the traffic you will not have time. But if it is a high school or college game then it should last about 2 hours and then you might have time.

Answer 6

Baseball games usually are about three hours so it would be a tight squeeze.

Answer 7

You can at least go to part of it, if not all of it...3 hours is usually not too long for a baseball game.

Answer 8

depends. if its Little league or junior league, then yes. if major leagues, then pretty much no. a fast game is 2 hours. and then getting out of the stadium and the parking lots. takes a long time

Answer 9

9 innings

Answer 10

it varies. it lasts 3+ hours on average

Answer 11

Depends on the game.  Generally the average is somewhere around 3 hours.  If there's a lot of scoring or the pitchers are working slow, it could go longer.  Then if there's extra innings or rain delays, who knows how long it will last.  There are a ton of factors that determine the length of a game.
