'Round the Bases Multi-cache
SeeWhyMan: It was fun. The final has apparently been taken captive by the deep pipe in which it hung.
I have some even worse ideas for a puzzle cache so stay tuned...

This is a four-stage multi-cash where you will have to solve the
puzzle at each leg to move on. If you can solve all four, then you
score a smiley. If you get stuck on base 1, 2, or 3, you may need
to either wait for the next batter up to help you score, or there
is always the trusty phone a friend option.
It's the bottom of the 9th inning of the championship game. You are
up to bat. The score is tied. The count is 3 balls, two strikes.
You could be the winning factor for the game. It's down to the
wire!
Here comes the pitch - looks like a rock coming across the right
corner of the plate. You swing with all you've got. KABOOM! You rip
a very hard line drive right over the third baseman's head. The
left fielder is running toward it. The third baseman is running
backwards. The crowd goes wild!
The ball bounces and rolls into the corner of the diamond. FAIR
BALL!
Now, you must run around the bases. If you make it home, you are a
hero! If you fail, you will be mocked and scorned by your team for
years. If you get stuck on base, you will have to wait for the next
hero to come along.
To complete this cache, you will need to be able to figure out
numbers in other bases besides 10 (it's all a matter of what BASE
you are on). First base is at the posted coordinates.
To get to second base (base 2), you will need to figure out the
base 2 number: 10 is not ten, but 2 (binary).
To get to third base (base 3), you will need to figure out the base
3 number: 10 is not ten, but 3.
To get to home plate (base 4), you will need to figure out the base
4 number: 10 is not ten, but 4.
It's down to the wire! Will you make it?
