Just A Bit Outside - May 26
Welcome to our May contest: "Just A Bit Outside."
The contest is simple: Before each game you have to guess two things:
1) Number of called balls thrown by the opposing team
2) Number of walks issued to the Dodgers (yes, intentional walks count)
No multiple guesses on the number of balls; it is OK, however, to have multiple guesses on the number of walks. Only guesses in that day's contest thread, posted before game time, will count.
The person who wins the most games in May will win a copy of Bluetopia on DVD!

You've had an MVP day
of humorous commenting, but you would have reached immortal status if you went with “Sixth guess a laying” :)

Shoot, I'm too late for this game!
Guess I won’t be eligible, but might as well make a pick.
60 balls
5 walks
Hell of a guess Tripon
but I can’t count it since it wasn’t in before game time. If it’s any consolation, if I win 2nd place gets Bluetopia.
