CROSSWORD PUZZLE BASEBALL


You can't spit on a ball if you're a pitcher, but you can write on one if it's The New York Times Crossword Puzzle Baseball. Edited by the legendary Will Shortz, head of the New York Times crossword and founder of the annual American Crossword Puzzle Tournament, this indelible baseball features countless questions on the game's greatest slang, players and teams to show and broaden your knowledge of the national pastime. The questions and answers are included too, but don't get caught stealing the latter. Ball is handmade and imported. Made in China and USA.

UNCOMMON KNOWLEDGE: The first published crossword appeared in the New York World in 1913. By the 1920s, crosswords had spread to newspapers across the country.

Comments about CROSSWORD PUZZLE BASEBALL:

Another successful Father's Day present - my dad is a man who loves crosswords and trivia so this was perfect for him. My only gripe is that the actual crossword itself comes on a fold-out paper that was rather plain but what you're buying here is more the baseball itself.

Comments about CROSSWORD PUZZLE BASEBALL:

This was too good to be true when i found it on their website. My grandmother does crossword puzzles everyday, and also loves baseball, so it was a no brainer! I had to get it for her, and she loved it! It comes with a little green turf(like a baseball field) to display it on. I scored some serious grandson points with this one.

My husband and I always give each other lots of gifts for Christmas, but we're always on the lookout for unusual items. We try to 'best' each other every year with the most unusual gift. He LOVES baseball and crossword puzzles. I couldn't have found a better gift! I definitely recommend it.

Comments about CROSSWORD PUZZLE BASEBALL:

This was a great gift--my father-in-law loved it. He found the puzzle itself very easy, but the point is more to have the ball rather than to do the puzzle.
