Congratulations to Bill Baer of Pennsylvania, the winner of the first challenge.
For having his entry drawn from all of the correctly answered entries that we received, Bill Baer wins a copy of Almost a Dynasty: The Rise and Fall of the 1980 Phillies by William C. Kashatus, and a chance at the grand prize–Tickets for Two to a Phillies Game.
For last week’s trivia challenge, we lobbed a couple of easy ones out there just to get things started. Now that we’re warmed up, it’s time for a tougher set of questions.
