1918: Going into the bottom of the 7th inning at Baker Bowl, the Phillies and St. Louis had 8 runs apiece when a pitching duel broke out. For 12 1/2 innings, no one scored. The game was called a tie after 19 innings.1945: The Phils lose the first game of a double-header against Boston, their 16th in a row, which would have set a new team record. However, when a suspended game from earlier in the month is completed in July, the Phillies win, nullifying the record loss streak after the fact.
2015: For the third game in a row, the AA Reading Fightin' Phils played an extra inning game. Even more unusual, in each game, a position player was the pitcher of record: first baseman Brock Stassi got the win in the 18 inning game on June 11, catcher Rene Garcia took the loss the next night after allowing 2 runs in the 12th, and third baseman Devin Lohman was the loser the next night, allowing a run in the 15th.
