The only thing I can think of is back in the days when baseball was played
with out lights.  If one of the games continues to go on a tie until it was
to late to play, it is called  a tie (I think) and another game is played
and could possible cause a eighth game in a world series. I don't 
think it ever happen.

Has any one out there read the book "Strike Two" was it as good as "The 
Umpire Strikes Back". I want to know before I invest $4 for a paperback book.  
Thank you.
