Who's Going To Win "The Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America's Childhood"

Seven people entered for a chance to win a copy of Jane Leavy's new book, "The Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America's Childhood." The winner is the person who comes closest to guessing how many total runs the Yankees and Rangers will score in the ALCS. Surprisingly, none of the 7 guessed the same total and everyone is in the same ballpark. The only way the tie-breakers come into play is if the two teams score less than 38 runs. Here are the contestants and their guesses:

Scott = 38 (76 hits, 60 K, 17 BB)
Dan = 43 (65 hits, 45 K, 24 BB)
Joe = 44 (37 hits, 50 Ks 36 BB)
Don = 45 (61 hits, 69 K, 13 BB)
Dave = 46 (82 hits, 36 K, 18 BB)
Andy = 47 (103 hits, 60 K, 24 BB)
Nick = 49 (104 hits, 47 K, 26 BB)

Good luck guys.
