Games end so late that sometimes you don’t get (complete) coverage in papers; in Boston, the Herald is actually printed about 90
miles away in Chicopee these days so for many editions,
the next day’s paper’s coverage will be basically stories
written before the game, AND “...Sox lead 2-1 in 4th...”

The second game of the series with the Red Sox and the Rays went till 1:35 AM (eastern). IIRC, it took 11 innings to break the tie. I went to bed at 12:30, and figured I could read about it in the papers in the morning.
