GOG 2015 #40 A's vs. Mariners (Answers Posted!)

The A's salvaged one game from the Rays over the weekend and now head off to Seattle for a 3-game series in Safeco Field. They better get their one win in the first two games, since King Felix is waiting for them in game 3!

Questions:

1. Series Outcome: 3 games [3 points]

2. Starters: Choose one starter from the A's and one from the Mariners and guess IP / H / ER / BB / K for their starts. Remember to let us know who you're choosing! [2 points each] [20 total]

3. LFers: Our old friend Theth Thmith is the Mariners Left Fielder these days. The A's are running out Coco into LF most of the time. For Coco and Smith, guess PA / H / XBH / BB / K for the series. [2 points each] [20 total]

4. Relievers: For each team's bullpen for the series, guess Over/Under/Tie: 8 IP / 3 ER / 1 Save / 7 K / 3 BB [1 point each] [10 total]

5. Catchers: Make one set of guesses for all A's catchers combined, and one set of guesses for all Mariners catchers combined. [1 point each] [8 total]

a) Is there a passed ball?

b) Does a catcher throw out a runner trying to steal?

c) Does a catcher hit a Home Run during the series?

d) Does a catcher tag a runner out at the plate?

6. High WPA: Name the position players with the highest WPA for each team, each game. That makes 6 total guesses (you can name the same player twice if you think they'll do it twice.) It does not matter which game the player has the highest WPA. [2 points each] [12 total]
