Attention Orioles fans: Your last chance to become the MD Lottery Contestant of the Game is coming up on August 27th!

On August 27th, the Orioles begin their series against the Toronto Blue Jays at Camden Yards, where the Orioles have hit 84 home runs so far this season. The Orioles have also hit 11 homers against the Blue Jays. August 27th is also the last chance to enter to become a 2018 Maryland Lottery "Contestant of the Game"!

Stop by a Maryland Lottery retailer and purchase Home Run Riches scratch-off tickets for the chance to win up to $50,000 instantly! If your ticket isn't an instant winner, you still have a shot at becoming a "Contestant of the Game". Simply enter your non-winning Home Run Riches scratch-offs through the Maryland Lottery's My Lottery Rewards program by the deadline (August 27, 2018 at 11:59 PM). Once you create a rewards account, enter the ticket codes from your non-winning scratch-offs and you'll be automatically entered into the contest!

"Contestants of the Game" will win $500 for being selected, plus an additional $500 for every home run hit by an Orioles player during that game. So far this season, the Maryland Lottery has awarded a total of $141,000 for the 155 home runs scored by the Orioles.
