Guessing is now closed! There will be no prize for the winner, except for the lingering suspicion that you can predict future dates of baseball milestones. The author of this site is not responsible if the public perception that you can predict future baseball events causes you to be kidnapped by a shadowy government agency, like on "Heroes".
(Official guessing will close as soon as Biggio gets hit this year - feel free to leave a prediction in the comments after that, but we're all going to be less impressed if you say "he's going to break the record today!" after he's already tied it or something.)

Proof positive, there is a definite correlation betwixt wearing the new T shirts and the incidence of plunkings. I done had mine on and I know it had an impact on the trajectory of the ball. It’s kind of like when them scientists figured out and then proved that light waves bend when they go past a planet, well, I done figured out that there is a correlation between wearing the HBP shirts and our man “Target” actually getting plunked – now all I gots to do is work out the math to prove it. I’m headed out to the shed.
Is there a nobel prize in the field of lucky t-shirts?
How many runs did Hughie Jennings score after having reached base via plunking? How about Don Baylor? Is there anybody who has scored 100 runs in that fashion?
