*** ADDITIONAL PRIZES ADDED ***

Due to the quick response of some of our viewers, I find it necessary to enhance the contest by adding an additional round of competition and prizes:

THE PLAN - PART DEUX:
The Net54 member who comes closest to guessing the total number of runs both teams score in the World Series will win all of the Braves cards listed below:

1967 Topps Gary Geiger
1968 Topps Cecil Upshaw
1969 Topps Wayne Causey
1972 Topps Marty Perez
1972 Topps Lum Harris
1979 Xograph- Phil Niekro (similar to Kellogg's)
1979 Xograph- Jeff Burroughs
1988 Score Gary Roenicke
1988 Score Albert Hall
1989 Donruss Andy Nezelek
1992 Stadium Club Mike Heath

This 'tier's rules are the same as the first 'tier'- each member gets two guesses with no editing ruled by chorologicality - I think I just made up a new word - All guesses must be time-stamped no later than NOON Eastern Time, Tuesday, October 21st- the day the Series begins.

Please PM me if you have any questions.

Well, I am adding still more 'enjoyment' - This time, you will need to guess exactly how many games including the 2 wild-cards, will make up this post season - it can be as few as 20 (all sweeps) or as many as 33. Closest guess win this portion. The deadline for this part of the RAFFLE is Friday, October 10 @ NOON ET - the day of the first NL League Championship Series game.

So - to be clear, the deadline for THIS, the third tier, is actually earlier than the deadline for the previous tier. Please let me know if you don't understand my 'work'.

Now, we all know that there are no Ties in Baseball, but we have one TY in this RAFFLE and he's back representing on the first of two cards the winner of this tier will receive.

1971 Topps- 1970 NL Playoffs - Game #3- Cline Scores Winning Run !

And also going to the winner of this round, there HAS to be a World Series card given away, right?

1969 Topps - 1968 Series Game #4 - Cardinals 10 - Tigers 1

Attachment 162701


As with the previous tiers, members are allowed 2 guesses with no editing and the tie-breaker will again be the time-stamp of entries.

Please be sure to contact me, Raymond 'Clydepepper' Culpepper, if you have any questions or concerns. Should you or any of your fellow Net54Baseball members get caught without the closest guesses, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.

Good Luck & PLAY BALL!!
