The fastest baseball game on record took place on August 30, 1916. The two teams were from Winston-Salem and Asheville, North Carolina. The game was played in Asheville. The Winston-Salem team had to travel by train to and from Asheville. The last train that could get them back home on the same day was to leave at three o’clock. But the game was set for two o’ clock. How could they play the whole game and catch a train in just one hour? They asked the home team if they could start the game early. The Asheville team agreed.

The game started at 1:28. Both team played faster than they had ever had. All the batter swung at the ﬁrst pitch. The team ran on and off the ﬁeld between innings. Once, the Asheville pitcher even pitched before his teammates were on the ﬁeld. The game was over at 1:59. Winston-Salem won by two-one. The players had no problem catching the train.
