Join Draft Buddy 13-Run Baseball Pool

March 18, 2019 By Draft Buddy 134 Comments

13-run baseball pool

This is mostly right. Thrills of baseball. No skill required. And for up to 30 players. It’s the return of our (now annual) 13-run baseball pool!

Our 13-run baseball pool is back! Pick a team, sit back and cheer (or jeer). That is all there is to it. The first person whose team scores 14 different run totals from 0-13 starting MLB Opening Day on March 28 is the winner.

Last year we ran this two times over the MLB season. The inaugural pool started May 1, with member brentnap winning the American League side thanks to the Cleveland Indians. Yours truly won the National League side thanks to the Milwaukee Brewers. It finished July 8, which I am told is fairly quick for 13-run baseball pool standards.

The second pool started July 1. We crowned member MabeRuth the NL winner with, again, the Brew Crew. In the AL, no team got to 14 check marks and it ended in a four-way tie for first.

Join 2019 13-Run Baseball Pool

To join our 2019 version, simply comment below stating the team you want to select. No one can have the same team, so check the available teams and comments before posting. That is all there is to it, and I will update the table.

Last year we ran separate AL and NL contests, but we will for now limit to one team per member. The only other rule I think worth mentioning is we will start counting stats on March 28, and not include the games played in Japan on March 20 and 21. Sorry Athletics and Mariners, backers.

I am taking the Colorado Rockies this year. Good luck!

Free 13-Run Baseball Pool Contest

Chase Field Baseball Pool

Googling “baseball pool” returned some weird images, so went with this one of the swimming pool from Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks. At any rate, the point is join our 13-run baseball pool!

Have you ever heard of a 13-run baseball pool? I had not until a random conversation with a diehard New York Mets fan. This is not fantasy baseball, and even a game involving much (any?) skill, but it sounds like a lot of fun. And what better audience to try this than our Draft Buddy fantasy baseball members?

A 13-run baseball pool works like this… each person in the pool picks a Major League Baseball team. Then from the start date we mark when your team scores no runs in a game, 1 run in a game, 2 runs in a game, 3 runs, 4 runs, etc., etc. all the way up to 13 runs in a game. The first person whose team scores each of those 14 possible run totals, wins.

Yep, pretty sure no skill involved. Think of it as baseball bingo, and a fun way to track a team you normally wouldn’t follow.

Rules, Prizes

For our 13-run pool, we will have separate groups for each of the American League and National League. To select your team, make sure you are a registered Draft Buddy member, and post your choice in the comments below. Limit 1 entry per member.

We will start May 1. One twist I am going to throw in given the short notice is you can enter or change the team you pick all the way up to May 15, even though the stats accumulate starting May 1. A team cannot be picked more than once however, so you can only throw back your team if there is another team still available.

The winner of each of the American and National League groups receives a Draft Buddy t-shirt. If anyone would like to donate a prize to the prize pool that would be very cool of you.

Contest Standings

And away we go! Here are the pool standings starting May 1. I will update the member names as they are posted below in the comments.

Join below by simply posting your member name and team. The pool is designed with a limited number of available entries. I am going to take the Milwaukee Brewers (since I already follow the Blue Jays extensively, no need to take them). Thanks and good luck!
