Through day 5:
three strikes: redsoxfan1979*, rhauch, scc76, cardman2011, chief wahoo, benski
two strikes: katester44
one strike: mm1sub, david k.*, mrknicks
no strikes: fatrat, beachbum
* = sidebet challenger
First pitch is today at 7:05, make sure to get your picks in by than. No more entries allowed at this point. Through 5 days, still have two undefeateds, who will be the last to get a strike and basically assure themselves of not winning? Two more head back to the dugout - chief wahoo and benski (on my boxscore ellsbury did not have a hit last night, only a walk).
Good luck to those who remain!

Posey did not play tonight and I have no idea why except for Sanchez being called up...I didn't know this when I picked Posey for today. Obviously I don't get a hit but does this mean I get a strike?
Afraid so! I'm in the same boat with strike two....David Ortiz did not play! Best regards, David
Me too... Wright did not play!! Arrrrrggggghhhhhh!!!
Good luck to the survivors! THANKS, ANDY!!
So three of us got strikes because our players did not play yesterday

**Side Note - yes - DNP's count as a strike - if your guy does not get a hit for any reason on the day you picked them, it is a strike.

Yep...Mr. Mauer did me no favors...even had two games to try to get 1 hit, wasn't meant to be.

Normally double hitters..They rest Joe Mauer...I did see he pinch hit in the second game. Sorry.....I try to avoid catchers....Best regards, David
What happens if we both get the three strikes at the same time? Best regards, David
