told ya he had a friggen idol!  No one listens...Well played nfet!  Gl the rest of the way y'all!

Hey I said lets vote tropicanna. So dont look at me...

That said if you did pass him an idol trop, which your post implies, then you best win immunity in this next one or you are going home my friend.

Challenge #13
Five decades to pick from
Four SP will be needed in this challenge
Third base will be an important place to get
Two players will get a bonus for the next round
One gets immunity

Each Survivor will pick a team from the from the past 50 years (1961-2010). You will play one game against each of the other remaining Survivors, with a different pitcher starting each game. The two teams with the best records in the four games (tiebreakers are in order runs differential, fewest runs allowed, lowest-payroll team) will play a best-of-three series for immunity, with a three-man rotation of SP. Normal relief-pitching rules apply.

Getting runners safely to third base via triple or steal will be valuable for the next round, with the two players most successful in that getting first choices of teams for Challenge 14. The bonuses will be determined by combined triples and net steals (SB-CS) of third.

Sitemail your choice of team to me.

You never mentioned anything to me.  Who knows? I might have listened.

Each team has two home games and two away, playing one game against each of the other four Survivors. Winner gets immunity. All bonuses and immunity idols are invalid after this round of play and voting, so use them now if you've got them. I believe kneeneighbor still has the bonus allowing him to have the opponent's pitcher ejected one time in one game in the 7th or 8th inning. When you post scores, post the SP for each team along with any triples and sb/cs at third base. Each team must use a different SP in each of the four games, and only pitchers with half or more of their RL appearances can be used in relief.

Nfet and I played. I started Burnett and got him to pitch 7 strong innings to his Maddux who blew up and won 8-4. Neither of us had triples. I had 2 SB, 1 CS, for a net of 1. nfet had 1 SB, 0 CS for a net of 1.

Confirm.  Thx for the game.

Trop and I played. I started Pettitte to his Forsh and won 7-2. I had 0 triples, 0 CS, 0SB. trop had 0 triples and no steals of 3rd and 1 CS at 3rd.

Tough time finding hits against the 2009 Yankees, but we went with our number 4 pitcher there, so I wasn't necessarily expecting to win.  I was hoping he'd go longer than three innings though, lol....

Yankees win 7-2. 7 of 8 stealing second...but 0-1 stealing third here.  No attempts from Bastan of any steals.

Day times are going to be best for me for the next few days if that works for anyone.

I beat knee 6-2 (zachary vs. gubicza) 

i was 0 for 2 stealing 3b
he was 0 for 0

neither of us had any triples

Zachary and the 76 Reds beat Gubicza and the Royals 6-2.

Royals had 0 triples and 0 SB attempts

Reds have 0 triples and 0-2 on steals of 3rd

guys - i will be around all day today and tomorrow - (and this evening) - i'd love to get my games in - then I am going to Las Vegas on vacation through the following Wednesday - let me know when/if you'd be around -

Ack and knee, I can jump on now to play our games.

Sounds good to me.
