The Reds and Giants got involved in a 17 inning marathon this evening. Both teams were held scoreless from innings 6-16. It was Buster Posey who struck again against the Reds, hitting a walk-off home run off Robert Stephenson at 3:44 AM EST in the bottom of the 17th.
Patrick Jeter got us started with the recap, but had to bow out after 15 innings. I dozed off a couple times during this titanic struggle, but was somehow able to see it cross the finish line.

Late night notes
Billy Hamilton appeared to be suffering some cramps late in this one.
