And we are finally underway. I am noticing that several of you have marked hits/strikes with the assumption that the contest started Monday. The 1st was Tuesday (yesterday), which is where strikes start accumulating.

We have 22 participants this time around with 2 signing on for the side bet.

Three Strikes - NONE

Two Strikes - NONE

One Strike - katester44, cdahalk2001, mm1sub, anglinomics, chieftazmisty, fatrat, greatdadx2, gophergirl23, benlee66, dasoxfan, tgutta, scc76, intelliracer, fox merket

No Strikes - dlackey, mrknicks, benski3, dragonslayer913, jaybo374, dishnetman20m david k., neeman, beachbum

Basically - if you took Trout, you have a strike, if you took anyone else, you were safe on day one!!

First game today is at 1:08PM - please have your pick in by then.

If you still want to get in with just a one strike penalty, you are more than welcome to.

I guess it is true that pitching beats hitting early in the season. There are still a couple of you that are a day ahead, contest didn't start until Tuesday April 1st, so no one can have 3 strikes yet. We have 22 participants this time around with 2 signing on for the side bet.

Three Strikes - NONE

Two Strikes - katester44, cdahlk2001, mm1sub, anglinomics, quota, fatrat, greatdadx2, gophergirl23, benlee66, dasoxfan, tgutta, intelliracer, fox merket

One Strike - chieftazmisty, scc76, neeman, beachbum

No Strikes - dlackey, mrknicks, benski3, dragonslayer913, jaybo374, dishnetman20m david k.

Several with two strikes already, including your esteemed host who took an 0-10 over a double header......

First game today is at 12:35PM - please have your pick in by then.

No Strikes - mrknicks, dragonslayer913, dishnetman20, david k.

And the first 6 head back to the dugout, including your host after an 0-10 day and a rainout, that bodes well for the future. Still some that don't have your strikes correct, please check above and if you are still alive, make your picks.

Both Chieftazmisty and David K. have won the side bet - once the contest is over for the month, we will settle up.

Four more take a seat, leaving 10 to keep picking. Three still haven't swung and missed yet - not sure if that is good or not, the champion is rarely the last one to miss.

david K. called it, only one strike yesterday and it was called third strike looking. Three still haven't swung and missed yet - not sure if that is good or not, the champion is rarely the last one to miss.

Sorry for the late update - finally got to see a golf course this morning. And I play golf about as well as I pick my hitters in this contest....

The last one standing with no strikes is dishnetman20, which doesn't bode well for him. The weather caused more strikes than bad picks yesterday....
