You have the choice of the following:
(a) $3M right now with no strings attached
--or--
(b) You will be assigned to a college baseball game this weekend between two teams that are each very approximately 50th in the country in RPI ( https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/baseball/d1/rpi ). You will pitch the first 3 innings of the game for one of the teams.
If you allow 12 or more earned runs, you get nothing.
If you hold the other team to fewer than 12 earned runs, you will receive $2M times the number of runs under 12 that you held the other team to. E.g., if you allow 7 earned runs in the 3 innings, you will receive $10M.
Which do you pick? How many runs do you think you can hold the other team to? How are you training between now and this weekend?
