The tone in the site is getting a little “tight” so I have decided to play a game of dice baseball, using HSBW members as players. I will post the results inning by inning and make a box score and post stats at the end of game.
Here’s a little history:
The kids in my neighborhood used to play a game of "baseball" using a pair of dice and their baseball cards. You put 4 of the unused baseball cards down as the bases, then make your lineup of 9 using whatever cards you had. You rolled the dice, and the results were per the table below.
Dice Result
1 - 1 Home Run
1 - 2 Double
1 - 3 Out
1 - 4 Walk
1 - 5 Out
1 - 6 Single
2 - 2 Double Play
2 - 3 Out
2 - 4 Out
2 - 5 Single, Runners Advance 2 Bases
2 - 6 Out
3 - 3 Out
3 - 4 Single
3 - 5 Out
3 - 6 Out
4 - 4 Out
4 - 5 Out
4 - 6 Out
5 - 5 Out
5 - 6 Sacrifice Fly, Runners Advance 1 Base
6 - 6 Triple
Starting today, I will pick out managers, players, and bench warmers. Managers, you will need to name your team and if you choose, may change the lineup between innings. Managers may also add free agents (undrafted players) if they choose. Game is nine innings (one inning per work day), extra innings if needed.
Bullwinkle is the Commissioner, dice thrower and overall rule maker. There is no crying in baseball. So, I can cut you, trade you, suspend you or injure you if I want. Managers can pull from the bench or add free agents to replace your sorry *ss. So, play nice and have fun.
I need two managers....the first two members to volunteer get the job.
Let the first HSBW baseball game begin!
