The girls' rec leagues I do have inning limits of either 6 runs or 8 batters. The 8th-batter situation is an adventure, too, since the batter just hits the ball and keeps running.
Without these limits, we'd be in trouble. Most innings proceed reasonably normally, but just about every night they save us from at least one marathon inning.
The limits also allow the umpires to call the game "straight," with the knowledge that even if the pitcher walks everybody, there's an absolute end to the craziness.
