Geocache Description:

The name of this Cache has multiple literary meanings including the theme of the cache. Parking is plentiful and sadly as of the time of the placement very little traffic to worry about. NO NEED TO OPEN THE ELECTRIC BOXES.

In 1998, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa achieved national fame for their home run-hitting prowess in pursuit of Roger Maris' single season home run record of at the time 61; McGwire broke the record and hit 70 home runs that year. Sosa finished the season with 66.

I still remember going down to Riverfront stadium just to watch these two hit batting practice before the games.

Unfortunately it was also during this time just after a game that a reporter noticed a pill bottle in plain sight in Mark’s locker labeled as Androstenedione also called “Andro” for short. Many point to this incident as the start of a very long process to try to eliminate PEDs from professional baseball.

Congrats to gillyboots FTF! I hope you kept your FTF trophy and have it proudly displayed.
