Introducing a new kind of puzzle
Doesn't this puzzle also assume that Casey started the game? That is, it may be Casey's fourth at bat of the game, but another player may have batted in the 3rd spot before him and Casey was his replacement after that.
Number of outs is 26, not 27. The game would be over at 27 outs.
Yes, the question is what the score is at the end of the game, after Casey has struck out. Did I not word it clearly?
Oops, missed the “he struck out” portion. I, too, am obviously an avid follower of sportsball in all forms.
