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 daily player selections for up to ten (10) 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).

By registering and/or participating, participants agree that MLBAM will solely resolve any disputes and rules violations that arise in connection with the Contest. All decisions by MLBAM regarding the Contest shall be final and binding in all respects.

If you have any questions regarding the Contest, 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, after which you may not submit a player or change your selection; however, you can make your daily player selection up to ten (10)-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 2008 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. The foregoing are based on official scoring as confirmed by MLBAM.

In the event that a player you select plays in a double-header, your streak will only continue if the player gets at least one hit in both games in which he plays on that day (unless all the selected player's plate appearances (one or more) result in a base on balls, hit batsman, defensive interference or a sacrifice bunt). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that a player you select gets at least one hit in both games of a double-header, your streak will continue, but your streak will only increase by one (1) hit for that day, and not two (2) hits. Please note that this rule has changed for the 2008 season.

NOTE: Except as set forth in the Suspended Games section below, only hits officially scored as hits in 2008 MLB regular season games will be counted as valid hits in the Contest.

Suspended Games

The following shall apply in the event any MLB game(s) is suspended during the Contest Period:

1) In the event any 2008 MLB game(s) is suspended and subsequently completed within three (3) calendar days immediately following the date on which any such game(s) was suspended, all hits officially scored as hits for such suspended game(s) shall count as valid hits for purposes of this Contest.

2) In the event any 2008 MLB game(s) is suspended but not completed within three (3) calendar days of the day on which such game(s) was suspended, ONLY hits officially scored as hits in the portion of the game(s) that was played prior to the suspension will count as valid hits for purposes of this Contest, provided either of the following conditions apply at the time such game(s) is suspended:

a. The MLB team that is trailing in the portion of the game that was suspended (i) makes fifteen (15) or more outs in the game, and/or (ii) completes all of its at-bats for five (5) innings; or

b. The home MLB team (i) makes fifteen (15) or more outs, (ii) completes all of its at-bats for five (5) innings, and/or (iii) ties the game in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Under any of these circumstances, only hits officially scored as hits in the portion of the MLB game(s) that was played prior to the suspension will count as valid hits for purposes of this Contest. As such, hits officially scored as hits from any portion of a suspended game(s) that is completed four (4) or more days immediately following the day on which the game(s) is suspended will NOT count as valid hits for purposes of this Contest.

Example: A game started on Tuesday, May 27 between the Red Sox and Mariners is suspended with the score tied at 2-2 in the 7th inning. The game isn't resumed until Saturday, May 31 (i.e., four (4) calendar days later), and the Red Sox go on to win 3-2. In this case, all hits officially scored as hits from the first portion of the game (i.e., the portion played on May 27, prior to the game being suspended) will count as valid hits for the May 27 game. Any hits officially scored as hits from the second portion of the game that was completed on May 31 will NOT count toward either game played on May 27 or May 31.

3) In the event any MLB game(s) is suspended but not completed within three (3) calendar days of the day on which the game(s) was suspended, any hits officially scored as hits in any portion of the suspended game(s) will NOT count as valid hits for purposes of this Contest provided either of the following conditions apply at the time such game(s) is suspended:

a. The MLB team which is trailing does NOT (i) make fifteen (15) or more outs in the game, and/or (ii) complete all of its at-bats for five (5) innings;

or

b. An MLB game is tied and the visiting MLB team does NOT (i) make fifteen (15) outs or more in the game, or (ii) complete all of its at-bats for five (5) or more innings.

Under either of these circumstances, hits officially scored as hits for any portion(s) of any suspended game(s) will NOT count as valid hits for purposes of this Contest (i.e., such hits shall not apply to either the (1) day on which the suspended game(s) was started, or (2) day on which the suspended game(s) was completed.

Example: A game played on Tuesday, June 3 between the Yankees and Blue Jays is suspended with the score tied at 4-4 in the 4th inning. The game isn't resumed until Saturday, June 7 (i.e., four (4) calendar days later), and the Yankees go on to win 8-5. In this case, none of the hits officially scored as hits will count for either part of the game (and accordingly, for either day of a Contest participant's streak).

Stat Corrections

Your hit totals will not be updated to reflect official MLB statistics corrections that occur more than three (3) calendar days after the completion of an entire day's schedule of games. For example, for a game played on Saturday, April 5, the official scoring change would have to be made on or before Tuesday, April 8, to count toward a user's streak. If a scoring change for the Saturday, April 5 game were to take place on Wednesday, April 9 (four calendar days later), the scoring change would NOT be reflected in your hit streak.
