NAHWAL


Welcome to the 2nd half of NAHWAL!

 

A big "THANK YOU" to Large Joseph for running this for the first half of the season.  I'm sure that about halfway through this second part of the season, I will be ready to pass the reins on as well...

What a way to get this thing kicked off.  The Mets come to town with Atlanta's own Jeff Francoeur carrying their banner.  For the Mets, the "great" Ollie Perez is on the hill facing off against Atlanta's "Ace", Derek Lowe.

 

You all know the drill by now, the first two questions are pretty standard, with a wild-card question for the third.

1.  Attendance

2.  Pick to Click

3. How many ground balls + strikeouts will D-Lowe force on Frenchy (What?  I HAD to do something FYF-related in his first game against us!)

uhh....question

I have only been around this blog for a couple of weeks and just stumbled here.

I get 1 and 3, but what is the pick to click?

by SupermanWearsBobSander'sPJs on Jul 16, 2009 1:17 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Pick a player who is going to have a really good game, like the game MVP. There can be up to three picked by justincredible, but you only pick one.

I love how poor Justin is getting a bunch of newbies who aren’t in the spreadsheet involved in the game. Good luck with that, buddy!

Time Limit

Unless the NAHWAL is posted late, the cut-off is game-time. If I am late in posting, I will give until like the 3rd inning or something, but I will always post when the deadline will be.

nice… glad you decided this because otherwise the game is pointless (to those of us who think there is still a point to be had).

Well, what a surprise. Francoeur was 0-4 with an RBI, so he MUST be valuable, right? I mean, he did have an RBI!

/sarcasm

Here are the results:

1. Attendence was 32,736 – Point goes to brndn

2. P2C was – Escobar, G. Anderson and the bullpen – Acosta, Moylan and Soriano (yeah, that is 5 people, I know). Points go to – rawleigh, brndn, and commando2317

3. D. Lowe got Frenchy out on a groundball once and a strike-out once for a total of 2 (Frenchy’s double-play ball was a line-out). Points go to – 10-4, brndn (A sweep for him!!!), Dammit JIm, esadb, mvhsbball , nomorespinsports, John Holton, mccannfan, Bravely going forward, HandsOffSnakey, GoBravesNY, HEYJUDE and rawleigh
