Timed Game: "One More Inning"

[Manny A]

My old local Little League used a similar system. We used to go with no-new-inning after 1:45, but as the clock got close to that time, the home team would inevitably stall if they were ahead. We then changed it to one-more-inning after 1:35, and that disincentivized the winning team from doing anything as we approached the time mark. The only drawback with that is that it resulted in longer games on occasion, where the one-more inning may start at, say, 1:50, and we would approach 2:00 or longer before the game ended. But for the most part, it made things much more manageable, and stopped the shenanigans.
