Patch user Gary Zambo was one of two participants to guess that Milwaukee and Chicago would combine for 32 runs, three fewer than the actual total of 35.
It shouldn’t be surprising that most entrants in Patch’s Pro Baseball Pick ‘Em Contest did not give the batters enough credit in making their selections. Milwaukee outscored Chicago 18-17 in the three-game series over the weekend, and few participants counted on 35 total runs from the teams battling for last place in the division. Two people made a selection of 32 total runs to come closest to the exact number, and in a random drawing, Gary Zambo was chosen to win the $100 gift card good for pro baseball apparel. Thanks to everyone who participated. Enjoy the rest of the baseball season!
