    1 pitch for three outs: First pitch puts the lead off batter on base, who steals or advances to second and third without more pitches. Second batter enters the batter's box. Runner on third attempts to steal home, but the batter interfers and is called out. By rule, the runner must return to third base. Scenario is repeated twice more in the inning.

    18 pitches for a complete non-rain-shortened game: Scenario above happens and is repeated again in each subsequent inning by both teams through 8 1/2 innings. First batter in the bottom of the ninth scores on one pitch. Final score, 1-0. Pitch count: 18 (9 by the visitor team, 9 by the home team)
