MLB.com Beat the Streak -- Official Rules

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN

The object of MLB.com Beat the Streak (the "Contest") is to establish a virtual "hitting streak" and keep it going for as long as possible. You'll do this by selecting one Major League Baseball ("MLB") player each game day, from a list displayed on MLB.com of MLB players who are on a MLB Club's active roster on that day. If the player you select for that day gets at least one hit in that day's games, your streak continues. If the player you select does not get a hit, you can still participate, but your streak is reset to zero. You must select a player each game day; however, you can make your player selections for up to seven (7) days in the future. If you fail to select a player for any game day, your streak will automatically reset to zero. You can select any player as many times as you want over the course of the Contest Period (as defined below).

The Contest is open only to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States and Washington D.C.

All decisions by MLBAM regarding the Contest shall be final and binding in all respects. If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to MLB.com customer support.

Selecting your players

Each day on which an MLB game is played during the Contest Period, you must select one (1) player from a list displayed on MLB.com. If you fail to select a player for any day of the Contest Period on which a game is played, your streak will reset to zero. The list of available players may change as a result of injury or other roster changes, so be alert. You will be able to select any player from the list who is on a MLB Club's active roster on that day. You will have until five (5) minutes prior to the start of the first MLB game being played on that day to make your player selection for that day; however, you can make your daily player selection up to seven (7)-days prior to any game day of the Contest Period. MLB.com's computer shall be the official clock of the Contest.

Establishing and Maintaining a Streak

All participants start at zero. Your streak is measured by the number of consecutive days the player(s) you select are credited with a hit during the 2007 MLB regular season.

If you select a player for any day who does not get a hit during the day for which you selected him, your streak ends and must start to build your streak again from zero.

If a player you select does not play during the day for which you selected him for any reason, your streak will NOT end. A hitting streak will also NOT end if all the selected player's plate appearances (one or more) result in a base on balls, hit batsman, defensive interference or a sacrifice bunt. A hitting streak will end if the player has a sacrifice fly and no hit. Your streak will remain intact in the event of a cancelled or postponed game.

In the event that a player you select plays in a double-header, your streak will continue as long as the player gets at least one hit in either of the two games.

NOTE: Only hits officially scored as hits in 2007 MLB regular season games will be counted in MLB.com Beat the Streak.
