Yesterday I posted a pre-game contest with the prize being a shirt from SportsCrack.com. Well, it turns out I'm not very good at writing questions for such a contest, because after answering the five questions, we had a five way tie. And after going through all three tie-breakers, we had a four way tie. So I'm going to have to modify the prizes just a bit.
But first, the five who each answered four questions correctly: MDTerpFan, tflach2, dshawnmills, shaznit33 and arlingtonOsfan. Congrats! After the tiebreaker questions, sadly, arlingtonOsfan was eliminated.
Since there are four winners and only two SportsCrack.com shirts, I'm going to throw in two Camden Chat t-shirts as well. The prizes will be first come, first serve. Winners, listen up! Email me with the subject line "Camden Chat T-Shirt Contest" and in the body of the email tell me your screen name and if you want Buck You Jeter, Bazooka Jones, or a Camden Chat shirt (specify which one). Please email me by 5 p.m Friday to claim your prize.
As for the questions and their answers, here they are:
- The over/under on tonight's game is 8.5. What do you take? OVER
- How many strikeouts will Jake Arrieta get today? FOUR
