Geocache Description:


WELCOME TO HOME RUN DERBY 2015. EVERY SATURDAY MORNING A NEW CACHE WILL BE RELEASED. AFTER IT'S PUBLISHED YOU WILL HAVE ROUGHLY A WEEK TO FIND IT AND SELECT A SLUGGER TO REPRESENT YOU IN THAT WEEK’S EDITION OF THE HOME RUN DERBY. SELECT ONE PLAYER AND INCLUDE HIS NAME IN YOUR LOG. THE NUMBER OF HOME RUNS HE HITS THE FOLLOWING WEEK IS YOUR SCORE (DON'T WORRY, WE WILL HANDLE ALL THE SCORING). AFTER SIX WEEKS THE STANDINGS WILL RESET AND WE WILL START ANOTHER SIX WEEK SESSION. AT THE END OF THAT THE CHAMPION OF ROUND ONE WILL SQUARE OFF AGAINST THE CHAMPION OF ROUND TWO FOR A GEOCACHING WORLD SERIES!


THE "CATCH" IS EVERY PLAYER MUST BE UNIQUE, SO FTF HAS CHOICE OF ANY PLAYER, SECOND TO FIND WILL HAVE SECOND PICK AND SO ON. THE CACHE HIDERS WILL ALSO BE PLAYING SO THE CACHE OWNER WILL SELECT FIFTH EACH WEEK.

THIS IS WEEK 4 OF THE SERIES. ALL SCORING WILL TAKE PLACE MAY 4TH TO THE 10TH. PARTICIPATION IN THE DERBY IS STRICTLY OPTIONAL SO FEEL FREE TO FIND THE CACHE AND WATCH ALL THE ACTION FROM THE GRANDSTAND. GAME ON!


MANY MAJOR LEAGUE DREAMS START IN BATTING CAGES MUCH LIKE THE ONES YOU SEE IN THE VICINITY OF THE CACHE.
 

FTF PRIZE IS AN UNACTIVATED FTF GEOCOIN.

NOTE: THERE IS NO NEED TO TAKE ANYTHING APART.
