Rangers’ longest Fall Classic clash tiny compared to 18-inning 2025 showdown
2011 World Series Game 6 - Texas Rangers v St Louis Cardinals | Doug Pensinger/GettyImagesThis is going to hurt to talk about but sadly it's relevant. Not only has it been exactly 15 years since that ill fated night in St. Louis, but it also happens to be the longest World Series game the Texas Rangers have ever played.
Why is that relevant? Well, because the second-longest game in World Series history finally came to an end just short of 2 a.m. Texas time thanks to a walk-off home run by Freddie Freeman that sent the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 2-1 series lead over the Toronto Blue Jays.
