If it seemed like the series against the Padres would never end, that wasn’t too far from the truth. The average length of the four games played by the Diamondbacks in San Diego over the weekend was three hours and 24 minutes. That’s 17 minutes longer than the average length of a major-league game in 2020, which was 3:07. If that pattern were to be sustained over the rest of the year, this means a fan watching every game would devote almost an additional 46 hours - so, more than an entire work week - to the team this year.
It’s shaping up to be a long baseball season for Diamondbacks fans
