It’s November…. it’s a chilly 75 degrees outside, and lot of us are a little bored to tears….
So, how about a game of Dice Baseball?
Rules, Rules, Rules….
Bullwinkle rolls the dice:
Single = double-1, 9, 10 (6 + 4)
Double = double-2
Triple = double-3, followed by extra roll-odd
Home run = double-4
Walk = double-5
Double play = double-6, if one or more runners on base. (See special rule,
below.)
Out = everything else. (i.e., including double-6 if no one on base.)
General rule: runners advance same number of bases as batter. I.e., 0 if
batter out; 1 if single, 2 if double, 3 if triple, 1 if forced by a walk.
Double play results: The batter is always out. More specifically:
Runners on 1st and 2nd: Out at 2nd and 1st, runner to third.
Runners on 1st and 3rd: Out at 2nd and 1st, runner scores.
Runners on 2nd and 3rd: Fly out, runner out at home, runner to 3rd.
Bases loaded: Out at home and 1st.
If you would like add’l rules to be inserted, post prior to start of game, we will discuss, I can be bribed and maybe we can work som’in, somi’in out. (ie: bean ball roll, or maybe a steal roll)
Bullwinkle is the commissioner and has final say in all player disputes, Bullwinkle must approve all trades. Bullwinkle may at anytime request blood and urine samples and each player is responsible for what is put into his/her own screen name. Bullwinkle can ban players for life or maybe one AB. Bullwinkle will not tolerate anyone tossing equipment and kicking my water cooler (yes….itsinthegame I’m talking to you.) Bullwinkle likes lively discourse, but no nasty comments regarding the shape/size of one’s snout or lack of a quality education. Bullwinkle will have no Yo Momma jokes about my Momma, but you may discuss anyone else’s Momma (if funny) Bullwinkle can change the rules at any time, but not the dice…..what is rolled is what is rolled.
If you want to play please post you name and requested number for your jersey below. If you wish to manage a team, also list that comment as well. I need at minimum 18 players. We may or may not have a draft, it depends on interest.
So, post below and let’s play ball!
