Well, if you attended about 1000 baseball games, then on average you would have had one game go 17 innings. Two-thirds of all extra-inning games lasted 10 or 11 innings.

MLB is losing fans because games are too expensive for kids to attend! It costs over $200 for a family of 4 to go to a game nowadays, so obviously only older fans can afford to go now. MLB is chasing money and flushing their future away.
