GUESSES STILL AVAILABLE:

WINNER - LOSER

STL - DET

SFG - BAL

KCR - SFG
KCR - STL

DET - SFG

BAL - SFG
BAL - STL

Sorry - got there a little late, but remember, there are three more 'rounds' to this raffle thingy.

**** bn2cardz wins the graded 1961 Topps Mel Roach card - as he was the only member to guess two teams that got to the LCS ****
Guesses that have already failed or were never possible:

I'm not displaying the member names on these for obvious reasons.

KCR- DET
KCR - PIT

Tigers in 6

MIL - NYY (twice)
BROWN STOCKINGS - BROWNS (this was a 2nd guess)

THE PLAN - PART THREE:
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.

So far, only Mountaineer1999 has made a guess with 49 Total Runs

Please PM me if you have any questions.

THE PLAN- PART TWO - YET MORE to be WON:

I hope that everyone who already made their picks of which team will beat which other team in the Series, checked back and saw the additional cards to be had for coming closest to the total number of runs scored by both teams in the Series.

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 43. 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 chronologically even though it is called PART TWO, 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 !

REDS 3 - PIRATES 2

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


THE PLAN - PART FOUR - AND FINALLY, ONE LAST CARD TO BE WON:

For the Net54Baseball member who comes closest to guessing the total number of strikeouts by both teams in the World Series, wins a card that is dear to my heart - as it depicts the very first Major League game I saw on TV:

The Opening Game of the 1963 World Series-

Dodgers 5 - Yankees 2

KOUFAX STRIKES OUT 15

So far only Mountaineer1999 has made a guess with 90 Total Strikeouts

Default One time reminder bump

** ERROR! ERROR! Look Out Will Robinson!

My directions are so confusing, they got me...again.

The deadline for PART 2 - Guessing the Total Runs scored by both World Series Teams is 10/21 before World Series Game #1.

- so the deadlines for PART THREE - Guessing the Total Number of Games Played to make up the Post-Season (which can be from 20 to 43) is Friday, 10/10 at Noon ET.

and PART 4 -Guessing the Total Number of Strikeouts by both Series participants is TUESDAY, 10/21 and the end of World Series Game #1.[/B]

I will bump this thread one last time on October 20 (the day before both remaining deadlines & Mickey's birthday).
