\nChallenges
\nFollow the instructions provided to select the Player or Club, as applicable (each such selection, a “Selection”), that you think will lead the Decade for each of the following Challenges:
\nTotal Home Runs by a Player (regular season only) (“Challenge #1”)
\nTotal Hits by a Player (regular season only) (“Challenge #2”)
\nTotal Pitcher Wins by a Player (regular season only) (“Challenge #3”)
\nTotal Pitching Strikeouts by a Player (regular season only) (“Challenge #4”)
\nTotal Club Wins by a Club (regular season only) (“Challenge #5”)
\nTotal World Series titles by a Club (“Challenge #6”)
\nTotal MVP Awards by a Player (“Challenge #7”)
\nTotal Cy Young Awards by a Player (“Challenge #8”)
\nTotal All-Star Game selections by a Player, including if the Player is selected for an All-Star Game but does play in such All-Star Game (“Challenge #9”)<\/p>\n

Scoring
\nThe top (4) four Players or Clubs, as applicable, for each Challenge will earn points (“Points”) for an Entry. Points will be allocated for each placement (i.e. 1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place or 4th place) as set forth below. Only four (4) Player or Club finishes will qualify to earn Points. This means that if there is a tie of any kind, Points will be awarded until four (4) total Players or Clubs, as applicable, have been accounted for provided that if more than one (1) set of Points for a place is awarded, the next placement (or more, as applicable) will not be awarded. For example, if two (2) players have the most home runs during the Decade, there will be two (2) first (1st) place Points allocations, one third (3rd) place Point allocation and one fourth (4th) place Point allocation. No second (2nd) place Point allocation will be awarded as two (2) first (1st) place Points were allocated and four (4) total Players would have led to points allocations.
\nEach Entry will be scored and receive Points as follows unless multiple Players or Clubs, as applicable, have tied in results in the specific Challenge in which event, each Player or Club that is within the top four (4) Players or Clubs (as applicable) will receive Points as described in the prior paragraph. Points are, as determined and verified by Sponsor in its sole discretion based on official MLB results:
\nCorrect Selection for any Challenge: Ten (10) Points
\nSelection finishes second (2nd) for any Challenge: Seven (7) Points
\nSelection finishes third (3rd) for any Challenge: Four (4) Points
\nSelection finishes fourth (4th) for any Challenge: One (1) Point
\nThe maximum number of Points an Entry may receive is ninety (90) Points.<\/p>\n

Grand Prize
\nThe Grand Prize Winner, if any, will receive one million U.S. dollars (USD$1,000,000) (the “Grand Prize”). Approximate Retail Value of the Grand Prize: one million U.S. dollars (USD$1,000,000). IN NO EVENT WILL MORE THAN ONE (1) GRAND PRIZE BE AWARDED.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
