The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres played an epic 16-inning game. On the East Coast, it ended just before 4 a.m. when Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock hit a two-run home run in the top of the 16th inning to give the Dodgers a 5-3 win.
The game lasted five hours and 49 minutes, saw 19 pitchers and a combined 489 pitches.
"I'm pretty beat," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after the game.
He's probably not the only one. For anyone who needs to get out of work or school Thursday, the Dodgers are here to help with a handy get-out-of-work/school note that is very official and should get Dodgers fans out of any jam today.
