| #4 Three Run, Three Hits, One Error. The error being the three getting away. |

| #3 No runs? Each stiff should be a run, with wounded counting as hits. |

| #2 Yeah, I thought of that, Carl, but thought the 'hits' played better as in the Mafia (oops!) sense. But then, what is a 'run'? Well, killing Zarqawi was definitely a 'hit', but also a 'home run'. Perhaps a 'run' is several 'hits' leading to a bigshot guy in Thugburg getting wacked or jugged? Whaddaya think? |
