In the June 1, 2009 issue of Sports Illustrated, there was a great article commemorating the 50 year anniversary of what is known as the greatest game ever pitched. On May 26, 1959, Pirates pitcher Harvey Haddix pitched 12 perfect innings en route to 1-0 loss to the Milwaukee Braves in 13 innings. He did not record an out in the 13th inning, with an runner reaching on an error, followed by an intentional walk and a double.

This past Saturday, 50 years and 4 days later, Texas Longhorns reliever Austin Wood pitched 13 innings, including 12 1/3 innings of no-hit ball before allowing a two-out single to Tony Sanchez in the 19th inning. Texas would end up winning the 25 inning game 3-2, making it the longest game in NCAA history.
