0 Guest Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Here's my answer. Jones = Pitcher Smith = Catcher Brown = 1st Base White = 2nd Base Adams = 3rd Base Miller = Short Stop Knight = Right Field Green = Left Field Hunter = Center Field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 onetruth Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I'm probably completely wrong, but I'm doing this at work, in between actual work, so... Brown - 1st baseman White - 2nd baseman Adams - 3rd baseman Miller- Catcher Green - Left field Hunter- Center Knight- Right field Jones - Pitcher Smith - Short stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
