Yesterday’s results
spooky93’s season-high 48-game streak may be over, but the race for 57 is still on. New leader dalmeetz048 extended his streak to 33
games on the strength of a 2-for-4 effort from Texas All-Star Josh Hamilton.
Second-place contestant mday1018 stayed two games behind the leader
thanks to a 2-for-4 night from Yankees All-Star Alex Rodriguez.
eazyeric, whose 28-game streak puts him in a tie for fourth place with
hdchannel, stayed alive with a first-inning double by Placido Polanco.
The early hit proved to be a lifesaver for eazyeric, as Polanco didn’t
manage a hit in his remaining six trips to the dish in the Tigers’ 15-inning affair.

I told you guys in the last blog, watch out for me. 😉 Now up to 4 games with Crawfords 1st inning single today. I’ll be up there soon enough and you’ll be seeing an interview with me; I won’t be anonymous. Good luck everyone.
well i hope that Hanley is the man tonight, what with an average of over 500 against Maddux, im liking my chances
2 DAYS IN A ROW. EVERYONE IN TOP 25 SURVIVES. PLUS, ONLY ONE 0-FOR IN TOP CHOICES FOR LAST 2 DAYS. BERMKAN, YESTERDAY, AND JONES, TODAY.
NEED A MAJOR WIPE OUT OF THE TOP 25 BOARD VERY SOON AS I AM GETTING LITTLE NERVOUS THAT ANOTHER SPOOKY93 IS IN THE MAKING.
WE NEED ONE LIKE EARLY IN THE YEAR WHEN 19 OR 20 FROM THE TOP 25 GOT WIPED OUT.
I agree. The number to get on the leaderboard keeps going up and up. A wipeout would be nice which would put me up on the leaderboard =)
