There is no hard stop timing rule to end a game; however, no new inning may start after 1 hour 45 minutes from the start of the game unless the game is tied
Any inning started after 1 hour 45 minutes due to tie will begin with a runner on 2nd base when each team bats (runner will be the last out from the prior inning)
