Pretty much what the title asks. For some reason my google skills are failing. Anybody know?

39, I think, based on Baseball Reference saying that [all teams combined had a 39-39 record](http://www.baseball-reference.com/play-index/inning_summary.cgi?year=2015&team_id=ANY&submitter=1) in games tied at the start of the 13th inning.
