How many innings make up a baseball game?

The average game of baseball lasts nine innings. It can go longer than nine innings if the game is tied after nine innings, in which case the two teams play until the tie is broken, and one team wins. On occasion, when it rains, you can have a game that goes fewer than nine innings.
