A baseball match is usually scheduled for 9 innings, but some matches can be scheduled for 7 innings and even 5, 6, 8. However, just because a match is scheduled for x innings, this does not mean that that many innings will actually be played. A match could be called early because of weather conditions and although the full number of innings was not played the result is still considered official. A match could also have more than the scheduled number of innings if it is tied score and goes to extra innings.
