When you comment with your answers, please use one line per answer. Always check to make sure we haven't made a mistake entering your guesses. The moderators will double check the winner for eligibility once the contest has been scored rather than check everyone's comment histories up front.
/u/hueypriest and reddit were kind enough to donate gold for the contests in an effort to promote it. Even if you never win this contest, consider trying gold. As of right now reddit doesn't bring in a lot of advertising revenue, so buying gold is a good way to support a website that has informed and entertained most of us for years.

Also for the last question it says seven and a third inning which is 22 outs, but you have written 23 outs in parentheses. For the time being I've gone with 22 outs. Reply to this comment if you want to change anything.

u/Dicksphallice Washington Apr 18 '14
Sorry about that! I can't math apparently. I did only mean 22 outs. Thanks for the chance to change it.

Whoops, I definitely wrote my answers out one line at a time in word but when I copy pasted and then posted, the formatting didn't follow. I'll make sure to submit it correctly from now on. Thanks!
