Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates


This puzzle is for all those baseball fanatics out there. I am just fasinated by all the history that has been made in baseball ever since baseball first became a sport. And if you are as big of a baseball fan as I am, then you will absolutely love this series. To get the final coordinates, you must answer the following questions.

 

N 37° 47.ABC W 121° 53.DEF

 

A = The last digit in the number of people that attended game 4 of the 1905 World Series.

B = How many games did the Phiadelphia Athletics win in the 1905 World Series against the New York Giants?

C = The number of hits that the New York Giants had in Game 1 minus the number of hits that the Philadelphia Athletics had in Game 1.

D = The last digit in the date that Game 2 of the 1905 World Series was played.

E = The number of runs that the New York Giants scored in Game 3 of the 1905 World Series minus the number of runs that the New York Giants scored in Game 5 of the 1905 World Series.

F = The number of Earned Runs that the Philadelphia Athletics Starting Pitchers allowed in all of the games in the 1905 World Series combined.
