You dug deep to get here. Your reward is this week’s trivia question (prize carried over from last week):
Name the connection between today’s posts (all five six, including this one) and be very specific. First person to correctly answer in this post’s comments section wins the prize. (Hint: First person who says something about sports will be the first to lose.)
Last week’s trivia question: Bases loaded, no outs. The batter hits a grounder to the 1st Baseman, who fields the ball and steps on 1st base (beating the runner), then he throws to the Catcher, who catches the ball and steps on home plate (beating the runner). The catcher then throws the ball the the 3rd Baseman, who tags the runner coming from 2nd base (before the runner reaches 3rd base). What is the result of the play? First to correctly email the correct answer wins a prize.
Many came close; some tried to cheat and were disqualified (or deceived). Hardly anyone sent it to the correct email address.
Answer: We don’t know, since the play hasn’t ended yet. Nobody called time; the play is live. But good-on-ya’s to those who answered something like 3(u)-2-5, out at 1st & 3rd, safe at home, etc. (Remember, by getting the initial out of this play at 1st, the force was removed, which is why the runner at home is safe.)
Update:
The obligatory Ash Samawi clarification: One answer per person, per question. Relatives of the typist and those who sleep with him are not eligible.
