1:25 to 1:45 for how many innings? That seems really fast (7 innings normally takes 2 hours for me), but maybe these were some good adult leagues.
I'm sorry...I didn't mean to mislead you. I was combining an anecdote from an adult league game and giving you my HS varsity game average. Oh God, I can't get an adult game (they are 9 innings here) done in less than 2:15. And these ARE the good adult leagues, complete with former MLB players that live here. Most of the other adult leagues here, you're looking at 3 hours or more, no matter if you call every pitch a strike. Terrible ball in many NABA and MSBL leagues. There are a few elite ones though, and they were always a pleasure to work.
