The Shortest MLB Game This is the Past ball Podcast, a podcast that tells you a baseball history moment and under the amount of time you can run around the bases. And I'm your host, Matt, the shortest major league baseball game in history. The shortest major league baseball game in terms of duration occurred on September 28th, 1919. It was a game between the New York Heat Giants and the Philadelphia Phillies at Polo grounds in New York City. The game lasted only 51 minutes, making it the shortest game in MLB history.The reason for the game's brevity was likely due to the fact that it was the second game of a doubleheader and both teams were eager to finish quickly. Additionally, the pitchers likely worked quickly and there were likely fewer delays or interruption by the umpires because they also wanted to get out of there quickly. The Giants win the game with a score of six to one and the short duration of the game has made it notable.
