Double Humbugardy

Welcome to Humbugardy. I’m your host, Alex Scorebard.

Here are the rules for the double humbugardy: I will provide the answer, you provide the question. The answers and questions will all be related to either baseball and poetry somehow, but not necessarily both.

The first person with the winning question gets the points, and gets to choose the next answer.

The question must be in the form of a question. If the answer is a poem (or part of one), the question must not only be correct, it must scan correctly to complete the poem.

When I announce that the answer is questioned correctly, the winner can then choose the next answer. After which, I’ll post the next answer. I’ll post one or two answers per day, at random times.

In this round, you are allowed to use the web to research.

Ready to start? The first person to comment below can pick the first answer from the following categories:

1.  Sweet, I think I'm the first commenter!

I love the game, so I'll take Sudoku for 400, Alex.

2.  Hello. I just registered as a new member. How does one join the game? Do I need to wait until you start a new one?
