ASG GIG

Last year's ASG Questions were - I think - pretty fun. I'm mostly copying and pasting, but did add/subtract a bit. Good luck!

To access the player lists, click here.

1-Point questions to start:
1) Who will win the game (Frick or KML)?
2) Predict the final score. Example, "Frick 6, KML 5."
3) I'll set the Over-Under on total runs scored same as last year: 8.5. Are you "over" or "under"?
4) Take the over/under on 2.5 total Home Runs in the game.
5) True or False: The Brewers' (Frick) Gunnar Henderson (and leading the league in hits) will get a hit.
6) True or False: The Yeti's (KML) Aaron Judge will hit a home run.
7) True or False: The Dogs' (Frick) Shohei Ohtani will hit a home run.
8 ) True or False:  KML Starter Tarik Skubal (scheduled to go 2 innings unless he gets shelled) will K 3+ in the game.

9) Choose a favorite offensive player in the game, name him, and predict ONE of the following things he will do:
a) strike out (2 points)
b) hit a single (2 points)
c) steal a base (3 points)
d) multi-hit game (4 points)
e) hit a home run (5 points)
Example answer: Babe Ruth, D

10) Choose only THREE of the following ten possibilities to happen in the game. 3 points for each correct answer.
A) The game goes into extra innings.
B) The game is a blowout (one team wins by more than 5 runs).
C) At least one player drives in 3+.
D) One pitcher (other than the two starters) K's 2+.
E) No home runs are hit.
F) Multiple home runs are hit.
G) At least 2 players hit a double.
H) Both teams record at least one stolen base.
I) At least one player gets caught stealing.
