Major league baseball has one on their site, its called beat the streak. http://mlb.mlb.com/index.jsp.
You have to pick one hitter a day and obviously you need them to get a hit. Pick the right guy for 57 days and you win like 3 million (or something like that). It's pretty cool, especially if you like baseball.

I wonder if anyone picked Joe Dimaggio back in the day and that's why it's at 57 games

Probably not, everyone back then was too busy going to the track.
