This is a multi-contest tournament that will run through the end of the World Series. For each game of the World Series, we will post one 'Hi/Lo' contest that will give all SCF members (including staff) and opportunity to earn points for correctly answering questions based on the outcome of various World Series stats. Thus, if the World Series lasts for five games, then there will be five 'Hi/Lo' contests. Each contest will consist of ten simple questions where you make a choice between only two possible answers.

Scoring: Contestants receive one point for each correctly answered question. All points earned over all of the 'Hi/Lo' contests will be added up for each contestant. The contestant with the most points accumulated over the course of the tournament wins first place and will be awarded a card from the SCF Baseball Prize Vault (card to be announced at a later date). For example, if the World Series lasts five games and one contestant scores a perfect ten in each of the five contests, his total is 50 points and wins first prize.

Note: If a game is unable to be counted as an official game, it will not count for this contest.

Rules for this specific contest:
1. Deadline to post your entry for game 2 is 7:30 pm ET (4:30 am Pacific) Thursday October 28. Contestants may duplicate entries previously posted by other contestants. For this specific contest, contestants may edit their entry but not after the above deadline.
2. Simply reply to this thread with your guesses. Do not PM me with your guesses. Only one entry per member.
3. Members who violate any of these contest rules are subject to disqualification from the contest or tournament at our discretion.

Prizes:

First Place: One card from the SCF Prize Vault (TBA) and 100 card cash
Second Place: 250 card cash
Third Place: 200 card cash
Fourth Place: 150 card cash
Fifth Place: 100 card cash

Ok, let's go on to the Game 2 questions. You may copy, paste then edit the questions below to post your answers.
Be sure to read each question carefully.

1-Which will be higher in game 2, # of errors, or # of outfield assists?
2-Which pitcher will give up more hits, CJ Wilson or Matt Cain?
3-Which will be higher, total # of doubles, or total # of walks?

Sorry for the delay. I wanted to get prize confirmation before determining winners and announcing the prize. For your review, here are the Game 2 questions (correct answers are in bold, boxscore (http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2010_10_28_texmlb_sfnmlb_1#boxscore) verified):

1-Which will be higher in game 2, # of errors, or # of outfield assists? There were no errors nor outfield assists, therefore all contestants get one point for this question
2-Which pitcher will give up more hits, CJ Wilson or Matt Cain? Cain gives up 4 hits to Wilson's 3
3-Which will be higher, total # of doubles, or total # of walks? There were 3 doubles vs. 9 walks.
4-Which outfielder will have more hits, Josh Hamilton, or Cody Ross? Both players had one hit, so everyone gets a point.
5-Which will be higher, # runs, or # of pitchers used? There were 9 total runs and 9 total pitchers used.
6-Who will score more runs, Andres Torres or Elvis Andrus? Both players did not score.
7-Which will be higher, total runs scored multiplied by 10 or total combined strikes thrown by both starting pitchers?

9 total runs x 10 = 90
total combined strikes thrown by both starting pitchers: 62 by Wilson + 66 by Cain = 128

8-Which will be higher, the total # strikeouts by both teams, or total # of walks multiplied by 3?

total # strikeouts by both teams = 11
total # of walks multiplied by 3: 9 x 3 = 27

9-Which will be higher, the total # of pitches thrown by both starting pitchers, or 200? Wilson and Cain combined for 203 pitches
10-Which will be higher, total pitches thrown by both teams divided by total innings played, or total hits in the game?

total pitches thrown by both teams divided by total innings played: 290 / 8.5 = 34.1
total hits in the game = 12

Have you got prize confirmations yet?Yes I did. I've begun the tabulations but haven't had a chance to finish them yet. My apologies but I've been extremely busy the past few weeks working at one of the college bowl venues (http://www.sportscardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1284016). I've got Wednesday & Thursday off, so I hope to get this contest put to bed by Thursday night.

No worries. I hadn't seen that. Enjoy it and don't worry about this until you get back and can get around to it. I just wanted to make sure this contest wasn't forgotten about.
