FORMAT:
Date: TBD
MACHINE PITCH:
The player field will be organized where the top 10 players scores advance to round 2. Round 2 will start as zero first round numbers do not count unless needed for tie breaker. From Round 2 the top 3 players scores will advance to the Championship Round.
Instead of a set number of “outs” per round, each player this year will have 3 minutes to hit as many home runs as possible (worth 1 point each). A running clock will begin counting down upon release of the first pitch. The player gets one 30 second beak (clock stop) during each round.
Hitters will also be awarded a bonus Make-A-Wish GOLD BALL opportunity each round (worth 2 points). Players will receive as many Homerun GOLD BALLS until they hit an *OUT; P4 Foundation will donate $25.00 for each GOLD BALL hit for a Homerun to Make-A-Wish Georgia.
In the event of matching totals, the first tiebreaker will be the number of home runs hit in the prior rounds, if necessary, a coin flip.
*(OUT) definition: anything but a “Homerun” after the batter has swung at a ball
