PrintWelcome to our new September contest: "One, Two, Three Strikes, You're Out"
The contest is simple: Before each game you have to guess two things:
1) Number of strikes thrown by the Dodgers
2) Number of strikeouts by the Dodger pitchers
No multiple guesses on the number of strikes; it is OK, however, to have multiple guesses on the number of strikeouts. Only guesses in that day's contest thread, posted before game time, will count.
New this month: any exact correct guess (both strikes and strikeouts) will be worth 1.5 wins.
The person who has the most wins at the end of September will win their choice of Bluetopia on DVD, a 2009 Dodger Media Guide, or a copy of "100 Things Dodgers Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die" by Jon Weisman.

Hmm….So does MLB.com. Ollie still wins (under beats over in your tie with him.)
