Hello all. I am a new member to coin talk and would like to have a contest as a way to say thank you for all the help you have givin me so far. I am just a rookie at collecting and really dont have much yet. but i do have an extra 1908 indian head penny I would like to put in a contest. Here is how it goes. Since it is baseball season I thought Id put a baseball trivia question in. The first person that can tell me 5 ways to get on first base (WITHOUT HITTING THE BALL ) wins the coin. not much of a prize, but a fun contest. just be the first to reply to this contest with the right answer good luck bill
From what I can remember: An error A walk Getting hit by a pitch Catcher's interference Come into the game as a pinch runner
last one has to be a dropped third strike, for some reason I was thinking that it had to be tipped, but I don't think it does now...since the only two left is a single and a fielders choice
Pinch Runner A walk by balls Getting hit by a pitch Catcher's interference Third strike dropped by catcher
way to mark send me your address and i will send the coin. hey xtrmbrdr since you gave alot of the answer send me your address too Ill send ya something too wont be much but this was fun BILL
It was fun Bill, I haven't had to think about the rules of baseball in about 25 years, our all-star coach grilled us on the rules everyday, we all thought he was such a pita. I can't believe I missed the dropped third strike since I was the catcher
Please do a drawing for the others. I already have several 1908 IHC's. Besides I could think of four and could not remember "pinch runner". Thanks for the contest though.
That works for me. I feel like I did not really win since for the life of me I could not think of pinch runner. So you or talley are the real winners.
