Official SSHZ Contest #2- Opening day of the regular MLB season is next Thursday, March 28th. All 30 teams will be playing on that day.

Contest: Guess the total amount of runs scored by all 30 teams on opening day. Your guess can go over the actual total, and you would still win if you remain closest. Multiple guesses will get you banned. USA based winner only, but anyone can play.

Prize- smoke and seeds. Need I say more?

Your posted guess should look like this, so it's easily found by me:

"Total for opening day: 296 runs"
 
Total for opening day: 114 runs
 
3-1 odds that's too low.......
 
Total for opening day: 426 runs
 
199 runs will be scored! It is their destiny!

Oh, wait, did I say that out loud?
 
Total for opening day: 212 runs.
 
8 guesses so far, between 111 and 710.........
 
By the way, you CAN choose someone elses number if you wish. I'll pay off twice if necessary...........

Total for opening day: 114 runs.....
I may have been too hasty with the 3-1 odds offer. I did not consider cancelled games for weather, which could very well happen. So instead of 30 teams playing, it could be 26 or 28. My initial thought was about 130 runs, but 114 now seems entirely possible.

I figured 30 teams with about 4 runs each give or take...then took away a few runs for dud games....knowing multiple teams may score 1 or less while others put up 7 or 8...idk... interested to see I've never looked at such a stat
 
Bump........ 2 days u til this 1 day contest. At least it will make Thursday interesting.
 
Could be some rainouts on Thursday it looks like......final number could be way lower than expected.
 
Your diversion tactic to scare them all away from my winning low number didn't work on grump lmao he is stone cold 🤣

What's an average opening day? I've never followed this but curious since my number was deemed low what we would normally see?
 
I'm thinking it's pretty low.........cold and humid weather normally shortens the length a baseball will fly. The 2 rainouts didn't help the cause either.
