The Alpine Sun
On Sunday, April 25th, 2010 at 9:05 AM,
players from the Alpine Girls Softball Association (AGSA)
completed 39-hours of continuous softball play to set the New
World Record for the Longest Youth Marathon Softball Game.
The game was played at Otto Field in Alpine, CA, the
world record game included 142 players, ages 5 through 16. The
first pitch was thrown out at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, April 23.
After approximately 190 innings (and two sleepless nights) the
final score was 291 to 272.
Presented by Viejas, this event was a fundraiser for Rady
Children’s Hospital and the Alpine Girls Softball Field Fund.
Rady Children’s Hospital is a nonprofit hospital that treats
over 130,000 children with serious medical challenges.
The AGSA has supported limited use of the local
community center and is in desperate need of softball field
improvements. The AGSA is a 501C3 non-profit organization.
