    Time for round 19 of the 50 states LIF. Thanks to @ox1574

    Please only participate in this LIF if you can start your own LIF. Your LIF can be whatever type of competition you want it to be, the only rule you have to follow is players from your state and previous winner’s states are not eligible for the contest.

    States NOT eligible are:
    NY, IL, MI, CA, MN, PA, OH, CT, WA, TX, MA, NC, RI, AR, WI, VA, AL, and NJ

    As @ox1574 did, I will to open it to Alaska and Hawaii if a winner from that state is willing to split shipping costs with me.

    So here we go...

    I'm going to do a long play LIF as I need to buy some extra time for myself to ship. Very simple, pick who will have the most home runs up to (and including) April 30. Tiebreaker is total home runs (people can pick the same guy as someone before them.) If there is a tie after the tiebreaker, then I will use a random number generator among those tied.

    Good luck

    Tiebreaker is Total Homeruns in the entire MLB? Just looking to clarify

    It is the person who has the highest home runs out of the people guessed.

    Oh I got it. I thought it was guess the overall homerun leader at this date. My guess stands. Thanks for the chance to bring it home to Indiana

    That was my original idea, but I needed some sort of fall back in case no one picks the right guy.

    Since I want to play, and I have a dark horse, I'm going to put in my own guess. Obviously, I'm not eligible to win since I live in one of the excluded states...and it's my own LIF.
