We’ve made it, people. Today is December 21, which marks the Winter Solstice in the Northern hemisphere. That means today is the “shortest” day of the year, which sounds bad until you remember that means that every day for the next six months will be longer than the last. It’s all downhill from here, folks!
To celebrate the occasion, I’ll take a look at the shortest games in ’ history.
Extremely long-time Phillies fans may recall the shortest nine inning game in team history, played on September 29, 1919. It was part of a doubleheader against the New York Giants at the Polo Grounds.
