Geocache Description:

Reviving one of my favorite puzzle caches in a new location.

The cache is not located at the posted coordinates

The cache is located at:
  N  40° AB.CDE
W 111° FG.HIJ

To get these values for the actual coordinates you need to answer these questions about some inductees to the Baseball Hall of Fame:
The X in the answer represents the digit to be used for the coordinates.

A = Kirby Puckett's All-Star Game appearances (xX)
B = Joe DiMaggio's xX-game hit streak remains one of the most revered records in all of sports.
C = The year Elmer Flick batted his career high season average of .378 (xxxX)*
D = Tris Speaker's career RBIs (xxxX)**
E = Willie Mays' career homeruns (xxX)

F = Mickey Mantle's career homeruns (xXx)
G = Hack Wilson's single season RBI record (xXx)
H = Larry Doby became the first African-American to play in the American League in xxxX
I = Edd Roush was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in xxxX
J = Ty Cobb's career hits (xXxx)


*Some sites list the average as .367
**Some sites don't include RBIs prior to 1920, the first year Runs Batted In became an official MLB statistic.  The correct answer is a four digit number.
