How Many Innings Must There Be In A Baseball Game In Order For It To Be Considered Official?

It's usually 5 innings, but it would 41/2 if the home team were ahead after the top of the fourth.

The first answer was the right answer -- a game is 9 innings, and you need to have more than half the game played to be considered "official." If the home team is up, they would not make them play the final half of the fifth inning (just like they don't play the bottom half of the ninth inning if the home team is already winning, what's the point other than pointless injury opportunities and running up the score), so the answer is 4.5 or 5, depending on who is ahead at the middle of the fourth.

4 1/2 if the home team is winning... 5 if the visitors are winning

Five.

Three

Five innings

5

Atleast 5 and 2/3 inning weather the home or away teams r in the lead most times its up to the umps and mother nature

The questioner neve said if he was speaking about an adult or little league game.  In a professional game at least 5 (whole) innings must be played before it can be called because of rain, or some other event.

5 and a half I believe

Five innings. Halves don't count. Just 5.

You all are correct.  5 innings is the rule of thumb.

Five innings.

4.5 7.0

347,000! No, its usually 5 or 9... Depending on how dey want it.

9 innings and nothing less unless game is called for bad weather

The answer is 5 1/2 it the home team ia ahead or 6 complete innings if the home team is behind. Otherwise it is a suspended game and has to be resumed at the point where the game was stopped.
