Clue/Question: The Red Sox sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees on 12-26-1919. The problem was that he later . . .
Answer: VISITED
(Great drawing! The likeness of old George Herman, the old-fashioned scoreboard, the crowd with gentlemen in hats, and the two guys in the Red Sox dugout. One guy clearly pissed off, likely mouthing Sonuvabitch!, and the other guy with slumped shoulders . . . hanging his head, in total dejection. Very fun cartoon. None of the clue words were new, but they were well-jumbled. The answer letter layout was good enough. The semi-bonus clue was in the scoreboard sign. The AWAY team would be the VISITORS, so . . . you guys get it! Sorry this is so late. Another one of those days, I guess. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
