Geocache Description:

Congrats to Fushion Chamberlain for being TFTF!!!!

My friends Bob and Troy were out and about one day and come across the home town of William Hoy. A great baseball player who played for the Cincinnati Reds and the Washington Senators.
He had 600+ steals in his career and was the innovator of the signs that the umps use in baseball today. He was deaf so it was difficult for him to know when the umps were calling strikes, balls, outs, and safe. And because of this they created signs to help the deaf players to understand the umps.
He was also inducted into the American Athletic Association for the Deaf (AAAD) and is also in the Ohio Baseball hall of Fame. He was Honored in the 1951 World Series New York Yankees vs. Cincinnatti Reds by throwing out the first pitch.

This is a quick park and grab. You can pull off the side of road but the neighbors may be curious on what your are doing so be careful. Enjoy.
