#5. The game went extra innings tied 0-0. He was replaced in the extra innings and his team lost 4-0.
Or, he struck out four of the batters, but the catcher didn't catch the third strike. The batter ran on to 1st and was safe. During the next few batters, the runner stole each base, scoring from third by stealing before the final batter was struck out for the inning. This happened 4 times during the game.
GO Marlins!!!

1. Its still light outside.
2. 24 plums are worth 16 apples. It takes only 2/3rds the number of apples to equal in value 3/3rds the number of plums. If 3/3rds the number of plums equals 24, then 2/3rds of that number is 16.
3. 37 days. At the end of day one the worm would be at the one meter mark. At the end of the 35th day the worm would be at the 35 meter mark. On the 36th day the worm travels from 35 meters to 39 meters but slips back to 36 meters at the end of the 36th day. On the 37th day, the worm travels up four meters from the 36th meter and is consequently out of the hole. WTH I hope someone got that just so I can 
2 um
4. He was standing on the bottom rung.
5. The probability is zero. If three packages are correctly labelled, so is the fourth.
6. Ten kilometers. Mitch left one hour later than Billy, and was walking at a pace that would allow him to catch up to Billy in one hour. Since Henny was running for one hour at ten kph, he ran ten kilometers.
7. The Z should go above the line because all the letters on the top are formed with straight lines and all the letters on the bottom are formed with curved lines.

1. West Side Billy was working for a large construction company that was very concerned about employee theft. Someone tipped company security that Billy was the man to watch. Each night, he passed through security with a wheelbarrow full of scrap lumber, discarded electrical wires, and chunks of concrete. The security guards checked the contents daily, but could find nothing of value. What was Billy stealing?
2. Wicky the famous magician is standing on a concrete floor holding a raw egg in his outstretched hand. Without the aid of any objects, he is able to drop the egg two meters without breaking its shell. How does he accomplish this feat?
3. Ben can never tell a lie. George can never tell the truth. One of them said, " The other one said he is George. " Which one said that? Explain.
4. While mixing sand, gravel, and cement for the foundation of a house, a worker noticed a small bird hopping along the top of the foundation wall. The bird misjudged a hop and fell down one of the holes between the blocks.
The bird was too far for anyone to reach it. Someone suggested using two sticks to reach down into the hole and pull the bird out, but this idea was rejected for fear it would injure the fragile bird.
What would be the easiest way to get the bird out of the hole without injuring it?
5. If you turn your right-hand glove inside out and put it on your left hand, where will the palm of the glove be on your left hand? Explain.
6. Wicky, the famous magician, said he could put a bottle in the centre of a room and crawl into it. How?
7. Which number is next in this series:
10, 4, 3, 11, 15...?
(a) 14,
(b) 1,
