Yep, same here to both parts. Well, not quite 6 for 6, but he's gonna have to do something.

If I don’t finish last, it’ll be a miracle.

Still alive. Just needs to go 7-for-7 on Sunday. A 14-inning game oughta do it.

My guy (and from the way this started, 18 other entrant's guy) sits at .297. I fully expect him to go 1/4 tonight.

Who's here? It's time for the Question 3 Reveal!

This question was quite the bloodbath, as we have 11 correct answers, and 46 incorrect answers.

We'll start by reviewing the incorrects first.

I have a leaderboard that's up to the minute, but for finding specific player's averages, it's more expedient to use stats that don't include today's game. I'm making sure that it won't affect anyone on the bubble.

Our most popular incorrect, played by myself and 7 others, is Joey Votto. He's come on lately, with homers in 4 straight games this week, but a cold start has him sitting at .271. As this SHEEP is bigger than the correct SHEEP, this will activate the scoring wrinkle for these 8 players that their incorrect score will be 8 + (number of corrects) instead of (correct SHEEP) + (number of corrects).

Our next most popular incorrect, played by 6 contestants, and also activating the bigger SHEEP penalty, is DJ LeMahieu. He almost made it, as he's at .290 on the season.

Our next incorrects are a trio of would-be 3-pointers. Charlie Blackmon is typically a great bet for batting average in Coors, but he's at .281 so far.

Our next incorrect is Christian Yelich. He missed some time in the early going, but still qualified above the minimum PA threshold for this question. His average sits at .262.

Our next incorrect has yet to make his 2018 debut due to injury. Daniel Murphy has been on the DL all season so far.

Brian O'Nolan

Our next incorrect is a guy who has come on lately, but was snakebitten by the Dodgers' brutal start. Corey Seager's average sits at .268.

The remaining 16 incorrects are all would-be ace-hunters, which I'll reveal alphabetically. Andrew Benintendi sits at .250.

Next up is Anthony Rendon, who's on the DL but does have enough PA to qualify. He's at .286.

Our next incorrect is Avisail Garcia. Turns out that .392 BABIP last season wasn't quite sustainable, as his average is at .233 this year.
