My younger brother hates Papa Johns, but is fortunate to live in the Washington area.  We have the highest threshold to clear for baseball-related Papa Johns discounts, making it less likely he’ll encounter his nemesis.

Eighteen of Major League Baseball’s 30 teams have promotions with Papa Johns according to my count compiled during tonight’s Nats rain delay.  Except in one case, these deals involve getting half off for either simply winning a game, scoring a certain number of runs, or a combination of both.

Combos:
Nationals – win & score 7
Orioles – win & score 5
Royals – win & score 5

#Winning:
Twins
Phillies
Brewers
Cardinals
Pirates
Diamondbacks
Rockies

Scoreboard:
Rangers – score 7
Yankees – score 6
Rays – score 6
Braves – score 6
White Sox – score 5
Indians – score 5
Marlins – score 5

The Reds have a promo that isn’t tied to their games at all, but rather just gives people in Cincinnati 50 percent off on Mondays and Thursdays.

So how has all of that played out in the first month and a half of the season?  Well, my brother may want to consider Atlanta as a second home, which is convenient given that he is a Braves fan.  That team has failed the most at triggering Papa Johns deals.

Combos:
Nationals – 10
Orioles -11
Royals – 16

#Winning:
Twins – 19
Phillies – 13
Brewers – 12
Cardinals – 24
Pirates – 17
Diamondbacks – 15
Rockies – 11

Scoreboard:
Rangers – 8
Yankees – 10
Rays – 8
Braves – 6
White Sox -10
Indians – 12
Marlins – 16

And as always, the Cardinals are ruining life for everyone, including the hard-working people at Papa Johns locations in the St. Louis area.
