Well you all know how cryptograms work. One # stands for one letter, etc..., Below is the name of a sports player past or present. You have to guess who it is. Every day (well night) I will add in one letter till someone guesses it. 50 Webidz points to the winner. One guess per day, so good luck :D
Sport : Baseball
Other Clue : 1980's Pitcher
25/16/N/ - H/E/14/N/21/E/L

Uh... I just remembered ... I'm not a sporty-type person. That Ryan guy in Texas is the only 1980's pitcher I know :eek:

Yea, that's the one! I know using search would be cheating ... I guess going thru my son's old sports cards would be considered cheating too, huh? :p
