Boston Red Sox Quick Pick Official Rules

EFFECTIVE DATE:These Official Rules are effective as of May 12, 2021.

1. Promotion Structure: Red Sox Quick Pick (the "Promotion") is devised as a non-gambling promotion and is intended solely for entertainment purposes. The Promotion is comprised of multiple contests (each, a “Contest”), as further described in Section 4 below. If eligible for Contest prizing as described in Section 3 below, participants will compete for the opportunity to win the prize(s) as described in Section 4 below (each such prize, a “Prize”). The Promotion will begin at 8:00 am Eastern Time ("ET") on May 12, 2021 and end upon earlier of the conclusion of the final game of the 2021 Major League Baseball regular season or the date upon which Sponsor announces the close of the Promotion (the “Promotion Period”). By registering for the Promotion, you agree to be bound by these Official Rules. The Promotion is subject to all applicable federal, state, and local rules and regulations. Void outside the Eligible Territory (as defined below) and where prohibited or restricted by law, rule, or regulation.

2. Promotion Registration: To participate in the Promotion, you must be a registered user of MLB’s Ballpark mobile app (the “App). From within the App, click on the Promotion banners, buttons, and/or links to complete and submit the Promotion registration form. By fully completing and submitting all information required for Promotion registration, including your date of birth, and confirming your agreement to these Official Rules, you will be registered as a Promotion participant. App account registration is free. Data and usage rates may apply to download, installation, and use of the App or of a mobile phone or other web-enabled device; check with your service provider for details on these and other charges. Wireless service is not available in all areas. Throughout the Promotion Period, Sponsor may release updates to the App and notify you of the availability of such updates via in-App messaging or other means. Be sure to install these updates to participate in the Promotion via the App. If you do not install updates to the App when they are available, you may not be able to participate in the Promotion. Incomplete registrations are void. Participants are responsible for ensuring all their contact information is up-to-date and accurate.

3. Eligibility and Limits: The Promotion is open only to legal residents of Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, and Connecticut (excluding Fairfield County) (collectively, the “Eligible Territory”) who are, as of the date of Promotion registration, registered users of the App, twenty-one (21) years of age or older and not otherwise ineligible per the terms of this Section 3. Employees, officers, and directors and their immediate family members (spouse, parent, child, sibling, and their respective spouses, regardless of where they reside) and members of the same household (whether or not related) of MLB Advanced Media, L.P. (“Sponsor”), The Boston Red Sox Baseball Club Limited Partnership (“Administrator” or “Team”), the other MLB Entities (as defined below), each of their respective parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, governors, related entities, partners, partnerships, principals, licensees, sponsors, and advertising/promotion agencies, any other entity associated with the Promotion, and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors, and assigns (collectively, "Promotion Parties Parties") are not eligible to participate or win. The "MLB Entities" shall mean Sponsor, Administrator, the Office of the Commissioner of Baseball (“BOC”), its Bureaus, Committees, Subcommittees and Councils, Major League Baseball Properties, Inc., The MLB Network, LLC, the Major League Baseball Clubs (“Clubs”), each of their parent, subsidiary, affiliated and related entities, any entity which, now or in the future, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Clubs or the BOC, and the owners, general and limited partners, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, and agents of the foregoing entities.

Limit one (1) Promotion registration and, except as may be otherwise specified in Section 4 below, one (1) entry for each Contest per person/email address for the duration of the Promotion Period. Additional Promotion registrations and Contest entries received from any person/email address will be void. The use of a script, macro, or any other device to automate or subvert the Promotion registration or Contest entry process is prohibited and all such registrations and entries will be void. Sponsor reserves the right to permanently disqualify any person it believes has intentionally violated these Official Rules.

4. Contest Description and Entry: Each Contest invites participants to compete by submitting certain solicited predictions (each, a “Prediction”) regarding outcomes of the Team game played at the Team’s home ballpark (each, a “Team Home Game”) scheduled to take place on the day of the applicable Contest. Except as may be otherwise announced within the App, a Contest will take place on each day of the 2021 Major League Baseball season, provided that a Team Home Game is played on such day. If no Team Home Game takes place on any given day within the Promotion Period, no Contest shall be conducted for such day. For each Contest, the App will solicit seven (7) Predictions and one (1) tiebreaker concerning the Team Home Game scheduled and played on the applicable day.

Entry Period The entry period for each Contest will begin on or about 10:00 AM ET (or earlier, as announced within the App) of the day of the applicable Home Team Game and end at the official start of such Home Team Game. The App will announce the time at which the entry period for each Contest will close (“Lock Time”). Registered Promotion participants must submit all seven (7) Predictions and an answer to the tiebreaker prior to the Lock Time to receive an entry in the applicable Contest.

Entry Limit Limit one (1) Contest entry per person/per Team Game.

Prediction Deadline You may change your Predictions and tiebreaker answer up until the Lock Time, at which point your submissions will be “locked” for scoring purposes. To be scored for competition, your entry (i.e., all seven (7) Predictions and tiebreaker answer) must be submitted and recorded by the Sponsor prior to the Lock Time. No points will be awarded for Predictions submitted or recorded after the applicable Lock Time.

Prizing 7-for-7: Each Contest will feature a Prize which will be announced within the App at or about 9:00 AM ET of the applicable Contest date (“7-for-7 Prize”). Limit one (1) 7-for-7 Prize per person/per Team Home Game. For the avoidance of doubt, if you win a prize in one day’s Contest, you are eligible to compete and win a prize in a separate day’s Contest.

Monthly: For the months of May through September (inclusive), the Promotion will feature a Prize(s) to be awarded to the Monthly Leader (as defined below) (“Monthly Prize”), as announced within the App. Limit one (1) Monthly Prize per person/per month. For the avoidance of doubt, if you win a Monthly Prize in May, you are eligible to compete and win a Monthly Prize in June.

Scoring Contest entries will be scored by Sponsor in accordance with the below.

• Entrants will earn one (1) point for each correct Prediction made for the applicable Contest. The maximum number of points which may be earned for any Contest is seven (7).
• Sponsor will tabulate Contest scores as soon as practicable after the conclusion of the Team Game (or other relevant MLB games, if any) or 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the day after the Contest started, whichever comes first (“Final Call”), subject to the below terms regarding suspended games.
• In the event a solicited Prediction concerns a Team Home Game which is suspended, Sponsor will score and issue points if the Team Home Game is deemed an “official game” by Final Call. If the suspended Team Home Game is not deemed an “official game” by Final Call, the applicable Contest will be cancelled and voided and no Prize will be awarded. A Team Home Game is deemed an “official game” once the visiting team has made fifteen (15) outs (i.e., completed five (5) innings) and the home team is leading, or once the home team has made fifteen (15) outs regardless of score.
• In the event that a solicited Prediction concerns a Team Home Game or Team Home Game event which, for any reason, does not take place (e.g., a Prediction concerns a specific anticipated pitcher who is replaced by a substitute pitcher or concerns a Team Home Game which is cancelled or re-scheduled), the applicable Contest will be cancelled and voided and no Prize will be awarded
• In the event that a solicited Prediction concerns multiple MLB games or event outcomes and certain of those MLB games or events do not take place or the outcome of all the relevant MLB games or events cannot be determined by Final Call (e.g., a Prediction concerns the total number of runs scored by the American League vs. the National League across all MLB games scheduled for the day and two (2) such MLB games are cancelled), Sponsor may score and issue points if Sponsor determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that, in the aggregate, sufficient MLB game activity has taken place for Contest competition. If Sponsor determines that, in the aggregate, sufficient MLB game activity has not taken place, the applicable Contest will be cancelled and voided and no Prize will be awarded.
• The App will indicate if a Contest is cancelled and voided.
• In the event that, after Sponsor has scored and issued points for any Prediction and the applicable MLB game or event outcome is changed, corrected, or otherwise adjusted by Major League Baseball (e.g., following an instant replay review or following review initiated by a Club), points awarded within the Contest for the applicable Prediction will not be changed, corrected, or otherwise adjusted, even if such change, correction, or adjustment is anticipated by a Contest participant.
• Sponsor reserves the right, but assumes no obligation, to correct and update Contest scores based on errors or irregularities in the tabulation, transmission, or publication of MLB game outcomes or Prediction scores.

The decisions of Sponsor are final and binding with respect to Contest scoring and in all other Contest matters.

Winner(s) 7-for-7 Prize: Subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules, each entrant who earns the maximum score for a Contest will win the 7-for-7 Prize announced for such Contest. If no entrant earns the maximum score, the 7-for-7 Prize will not be awarded.

Monthly Prize: Subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules, the entrant who, in the aggregate, has scored the highest number of points for Predictions submitted during the applicable month (“Monthly Leader”) will win the applicable Monthly Prize. In the event of a tie for any Monthly Prize, the winner will be determined by applying and evaluating the tiebreaker question from the most recent Contest as follows (“Tiebreaker Process”):

• Sponsor will review the tied entrants’ answers to the tiebreaker question, which answers will be in the form of a numerical Prediction. Sponsor will award the 7-for-7 Prize to the entrant whose Prediction comes closest to matching the actual outcome of events contemplated in the tiebreaker question.
• For the avoidance of doubt, it does not matter if the tiebreaker answer is above or below the actual outcome. For example, if the tiebreaker question concerned the number of home runs to be scored during a certain event or time period and 50 home runs were recorded during the relevant time period, and one (1) tied participant predicted 48 and the other tied participant predicted 51, the participant who predicted 51 would win the tiebreaker and be deemed the winner.
• If there is still a tie after the tiebreaker answers are evaluated, the tie will be broken by evaluating which participant, according to Sponsor's records, submitted his/her tiebreaker answer first.

5. Prize Terms: Winner(s) will be determined as described in the table above. All Prize details are at Administrator’s sole discretion. All Prizes will be fulfilled by the Administrator. All costs and expenses associated with acceptance and use of any Prize which are not specifically described in the applicable Prize description as being provided by Administrator, including but not limited to federal, state, and local taxes (including income and withholding taxes), are the sole responsibility of the winner. The cash component of Prizes, if any, will be awarded via electronic funds transfer, in the form of a check, or such other means as may be reasonably determined by Administrator. Terms and conditions may apply to non-cash components of a Prize, as determined by the Prize supplier.

The terms and conditions of the tickets awarded as part of the Prize will govern in the event a legal game/event/exhibition, as defined by Major League Baseball, is not played or held due to weather conditions, an act of God, an act of terrorism, civil disturbance, or any other reason. Winner and his/her guest, if any, agree to comply with all applicable ballpark and venue regulations in connection with the prize; see redsox.com/ballpark for details. Administrator and the other MLB Entities reserve the right to remove or to deny entry to the winner and/or his/her guest, if any, who engage in a non-sportsmanlike or disruptive manner or with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any other person at the game/event/exhibition. Released Parties (as defined below) will not be responsible for weather conditions; acts of God; acts of terrorism; civil disturbances; local, state, or federal regulation, order, or policy; work stoppage; epidemic, pandemic, or any other issue concerning public health or safety; or any other event outside of their control that may cause the cancellation or postponement of any Major League Baseball game/event/exhibition. Major League Baseball game/event/exhibition tickets awarded as prizes may not be resold, offered for resale, or used for any commercial or promotional purpose whatsoever. Any such resale or commercial or promotional use may result in disqualification and prize forfeiture, and may invalidate the license granted by the game/event/exhibition ticket.

Participants are solely responsible for monitoring their email and voice message systems for Promotion-related notifications.

Each potential winner may also be required to submit his/her valid social security number and/or other identification to Administrator and may receive an IRS Form 1099 for any prize valued at $600 or greater (or if such winner has won multiple prizes valued at $600 in the aggregate). If any Prize or Prize notification is returned as undeliverable or is declined, if Administrator is unable to contact a potential winner, if the potential winner does not timely respond to Prize notification or document requirements, or if a potential winner is not in compliance with these Official Rules, such potential winner will be disqualified and the Prize in question will go unawarded, provided however that in the event of tie, the Prize may be awarded to the remaining, non-disqualified potential winner(s). Prizes will be awarded only to the Authorized Account Holder of the email address used for Promotion registration (subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules).
