Trebek: Andy Baggarly is a journalist who has a lifetime eligibility to vote for the Baseball Hall of Fame. Going to put you on the spot Andy. There are some very definite opinions regarding certain star players who were suspected of taking steroids ... Based on their accomplishments, do they deserve to be in the hall of fame?

Baggarly: Barry Bonds plays for the team I cover and I covered him breaking the all-time home run record, so I was right there on the ground floor of that. And its going to be very difficult for a lot of voters to decide if the steroid enhanced their numbers to the point where they wouldnt be Hall of Famers, or if any steroid use makes them ineligible. For me I think that someone like them should be in the Hall of Fame becauseits very difficult, but thats the answer I have.

By answering correctly, Baggarly upped his total earnings to 7800, giving him a chance to win. If Baggarly could answer Final Jeopardy correctly, and if he wagered all 7800, this would bring his total to 15,600.
However, Mike entered Final Jeopardy with 15,400, so in order to win, Baggarly would need one of the following two scenarios to play out...
a) Mike to answer incorrectly, regardless of how much he wagered
b) Mike to answer correctly, but wager less than 200, which would mean he could not eclipse Baggarly's 15,600.
Note: According to Jeopardy's Wikipedia page, "If two or three contestants are tied for first place following Final Jeopardy! during non-tournament play, both (or all three) are declared co-champions and appear on the next episode."
