    Mass. youth play in 36-hour ballgame for charity

    WRENTHAM, Mass. -- It took 101 innings, there were 687 runs scored, and 817 children participated.

    The players of the Wrentham Youth Baseball/Softball Association between the ages of 5 and 15 played for 36 straight hours over the weekend, raising an estimated $75,000 for charity.

    The event was billed by organizers as the world's longest baseball game. It began at 8:01 a.m. Saturday and ended at 8:01 p.m. Sunday.

    Coordinator Jim Lucas says the post-game handshake took about 10 minutes.

    The money is still being counted. It will go to a number of charities. The top fundraisers get to attend a lunch with former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling.

    The final score was Away 348, Home 339.
