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° 54.DEF


A = How many member from the 1919 World Series (Umpires, Reds, & White Sox) went on to be in the Hall of Fame?

B = The number of hits that the Chicago White Sox had in Game 3 of the 1919 World Series?

C = The number of games that the Chicago White Sox were ahead in the 1919 Regular Season. (Plus ½)

D = The number of Chicago White Sox (Black Sox) Players that were banned from organized baseball for fixing the 1919 World Series. (Minus 1)

E = The last digit in the time length of Game 7 of the 1919 World Series.

F = The 1919 World Series was the 2nd of only 4 World Series to ever be played, best out of how many games? (Minus 2)
