offline.cacher: The general rule reviewers use to archive a cache is that the cache owner has been notified (through a log entry) by the reviewer and that no response has been forthcoming. This is the case with this cache. As a result it has been archived.
If the owner would like to discuss this issue, please contact me through my geocaching.com profile. Include the GC code for the cache.

Geocache Description:

DO NOT GO TO THE POSTED COORDINATES! The coordinates posted are for the recommended parking location only. You must solve a crypto puzzle to find the actual cache coordinates.

Returning to our baseball theme, this cache is located in South Run Park just beyond the outfield fence (reminds me of the home run I hit). The cache is a rubbermaid container that is large enough to hold the log, a pencil, and maybe a few small trinkets. The puzzle should excite the mathematician in you. We'll start with a simple hint and see how it goes...

The encrypted coordinates--in standard N, W degrees, decimal minutes notation--are as follows:

10, 12, 20, 24, 31, 32, 37, 51, 57, 67, 69, 70, 74, 97, 101

Enjoy!
