On and on and on

Jeez louise, Yankee-Red Sox games go on forever! You can, almost without fail, count on a game that starts at 7 pm to go to 11:30 pm, midnight...I think it's because both teams are so patient at the plate, waiting for their pitch to hit. And as a diehard Yankee fan, I thoroughly enjoy the New York-Boston rivalry, but when I'm trying to get to bed early so I'm not dead on my feet at work in the morning, it's rough.
