Geocache Description:

The above coordinates ARE the location of the cache. However, to log this cache as a find you must meet the “Challenge” requirements documented below. I was surprised at how few MLB Team Names are out there.

Growing up as a boy MLB Baseball was America’s pass time and it was for me too. I would throw a ball against the back of the house for hours listening to the California Angels play. Man, those were the days.

Your challenge if you so choose is to find at least 15 caches with different MLB Baseball Team Names in them. Not the city or state but the identity of the team (of course if you find a cache called the San Francisco Giants or Oakland Athletics that would be perfect but not necessary the Giants or Athletics will suffice). In addition you can use the non plural of the words for teams such as “Ranger Rick” would qualify for the Rangers and “National Treasure” would qualify for the Nationals.

In addition to finding 15 different MLB Baseball Team names please find at least (3) different types of caches or categories (icons) when posting your finds. (Traditional, Multi, Unknown, Letterbox, Web, Virtual, Events. etc). This gives the challenge that extra star boost to the difficulty.

The MLB Baseball Team Names you can choose from are:

ANGELS, ASTROS, ATHLETICS (or A’s), BLUE JAYS, BRAVES, BREWERS, CARDINALS, CUBS, DIAMONDBACKS, DODGERS, GIANTS, INDIANS, NATIONALS, MARINERS, MARLINS, METS, ORIOLES, PADRES, PHILLIES, PIRATES, RANGERS, RAYS, RED SOX, REDS, ROCKIES, ROYALS, TIGERS, TWINS, WHITE SOX, YANKEES

You have no time limit on finding the caches. In fact, you may have already completed the cache requirements. But, if you haven’t… now you have some target caches to find.
