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° 48.ABC W 121° 55.DEF


A = How many losses did the winning pitcher of Game 6 of the 1917 World Series have?

B = In which game of the 1917 World Series did the great athlete Jim Thorpe, better known for football in general, make his only World Series appearance? (Minus 1)

C = The total number of runs that the Chicago White Sox scored in Game 1 of the 1917 World Series plus the total number of runs that the New York Giants scored in Game 1 of the 1917 World Series.

D = How many runs were scored in the 6th inning of every game of the 1917 World Series combined.

E = How many errors were committed by the Chicago White Sox in Game 5 of the 1917 Wolrd Series?

F = The last number in the date that Game 3 of the 1917 World Series was played on.
