Mets Lose 4th 20-inning Game

The New York Mets joined both Boston baseball teams as the only Major League teams to lose four games of 20 innings or more when they fell the Miami Marlins 2-1 in 20 innings Saturday. The Houston Astros are the best 20-inning team in history with a 3-0 mark, while the Braves are the worst. The records of every team in 20 inning games is listed below:

The Boston Red Sox are 1-4, while the other Boston team -if you had forgotten – is the Boston Braves who managed to go 0-4 before moving to Milwaukee and later Atlanta. The Braves never played a 20 inning game in Milwaukee, but lost one in Atlanta to drop to 0-5 when viewed as a franchise. The list was compiled by a Breitbart Sports analysis of results in the Baseball Almanac. The records from best to worst (most wins, then fewest losses as the tie-breaker) are listed below:
