2022 Lumberjack Bingo: TIMBER!!! Game Over.

[clarkzac]

Finally getting the chance to catch with Branch 6 starting last week. Alex is lucky that I've been too busy with work and the kids the last few days. Gonna claim the chainsaw with the Twins hitting 5 homeruns on 6/9

Confirmed!! Nice work, Alex.

You have won the Branch 6 bounty!

Please send me a PM to confirm your mailing address and your choice of recent WS champs (Braves, Nats, Dodgers).

You may begin working on Branch 7 effective yesterday, June 11th.

Everyone else remains on Branch 6.

Question...is it Team LOB or combined batters' LOB? If it's combined batters LOB, I need to go back and revisit the scoreboards.

hmmm….did not think there was a difference, but lo and behold, there is.

Went by the combined LOB number for Alex’s May 31st game (Cleveland vs KC).

Combined LOB = 15
Team LOB (further down in the box notes) = 9

MLB Gameday: Royals 3, Guardians 8 Final Score (05/31/2022)

Follow MLB results with FREE box scores, pitch-by-pitch strikezone info, and Statcast data for Royals vs. Guardians at Progressive Field

The prize has already been awarded. Sorry everyone! Yet another wrinkle.

Honestly did not know the two were different. Does anyone know why?

On the bright side, I don’t think this issue will come up again going forward.

No worries...lets me cross off 2 scenarios on branch 6!
The sum of individual batter LOB is different than team LOB in that the first tallies each batters' LOB following their at-bat whereas the team LOB only counts runners left on at the end of an inning (team LOB can never be more than 3 for any inning).

Example: (I'll use this year's Royals since it's not a far fetched scenario) say the Royals load the bases with nobody out (ok...that's pushing it). Santana strikes out = 3 LOB for him. Rivera strikes out = 3 LOB for him. Taylor flies out = 3 LOB for him, too, but instead of 9 LOB for the inning, the team as a whole left 3 runners on base when the inning concluded. Now, using the same scenario, but assume Taylor hits a grand slam before Whit grounds out. Santana and Rivera still have 3 LOB each, but the team LOB for that inning would be 0.

And that, my friends, is a master class on Men LOB. haha

Makes perfect sense, thanks! Just needed to have it laid out like that.

Confirmed! You can move down to Branch 7 as of yesterday, June 16.

Branch 6 remains in play for the others until June, but no bounty as @metallicalex already claimed it.

@clarkzac is also on Branch 7 as of June 9 (chainsaw, see post #61).

 

[chippernate]

Pretty sure I got mine branch 6 last night

Cincinnati 33-38 AB 6/9
Yankees 2+ PH 6/10
Cardinals 7-8 LOB 6/10 (if it is indeed Team LOB and not sum of the players)
Angels 9 K 6/17
Tigers 6 K 6/15
Giants 5+ BB 6/14

Tigers 6 K 6/15
Giants 5+ BB 6/14

Confirmed, however the Angels scenario was actually 6-16 and the Giants scenario was 6/13.

You can start Branch 7 effective today, June 17.

As for the LOBs, I’ll accept either because:

1. The branch bounty has already been claimed, so you are just playing for additional days to start branch 7

2. There was confusion when the bounty was claimed, so the sum total LOB was accepted

I'd better buy a Mega Millions ticket because I believe I hit the Sunny Sophomores yesterday, too. Please double check me:
Jonathan India (75) + Eric Haase (70) + Adolis Garcia (65.50) = 210.50
