"If you could split him in two, you'd have two Hall of Famers." -statistician Bill James, when asked if he thought Rickey Henderson was a Hall of Famer.

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is an independent, non-profit educational institution dedicated to fostering an appreciation of the historical development of baseball and its impact on our culture by collecting, preserving, exhibiting and interpreting its collections for a global audience as well as honoring those who have made outstanding contributions to our national pastime.

The Hall of Fame’s mission is to preserve the sport’s history, honor and excellence within the game and make a connection between the generations of people who enjoy baseball.

The Hall of Fame Gallery serves as the centerpiece of the historic National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum and the ideal place where excellence is honored. Less than one percent of those to have played baseball in the major leagues have earned a spot in the Hall of Fame.


The Cache is located at:

N 38° Harmon Killebrew, Mickey Mantle, Stan Musial, George Brett, Carl Yastrzemski,

W 121° Nellie Fox, Yogi Berra, Al Kaline, Cal Ripken, Jr (-1), Pee Wee Reese


The Hall of Fame is difficult to get into.
If your going to sign the log and get the clue to the final, you had better know how many batters that Cy Young struck out in his career.


Please make sure that the lid is "secured" when you leave.
