    SBR MLB hunt for october contest

    Hey guys here we go. The playoff match ups are almost completed with only OAK/NYY remaining.

    The Hunt for October Contest rules are as follows:

    Select Any 2 players from each of the 8 MLB remaining teams.
    ATL
    MIL
    LAD
    COL
    BOS
    HOU
    CLE
    OAK/NYY

    For each base hit a player gets he will earn the following points: Single=1 point,Double=2 points,Triple =3 points, Home Run =4 points. Now if a player hits a Home Run with a man on base this is worth 5 points, 2 men on base 6 points, 3 men on base 7 points, a Grand Slam is 10 points.

    Person with the most points wins!!

    At the conclusion of the World Series we will award the winners bet points.

    Prizes
    1st 2000 bet points
    2nd 1000 bet points
    3rd 500 bet points
    4th- 10th 300 bet points

    Any ties will be decided by guessing WITHOUT GOING OVER (PRICE IS RIGHT RULES) THE FOLLOWING QUESTION.... How many Home Runs will be hit in the MLB Playoffs beginning Oct 4th? (Wild Card games DO NOT COUNT)

    If there are any ties after this..prizes will be split.

    No EDITING.

    Must submit answers on this thread
    Contest closes at first pitch Thursday of the COL/MIL game.

    Contest open to SBR PROS ONLY!

    Yes you can select the 2 players from the OAK/NYY teams each, then once of them is eliminated tonight the remaining 2 players from the winning team will fill you complete field of 16 players. Remember this contest does not begin until tomorrow. The OAK/NYY game today is not included in the contest.
