ESPN Baseball Sudoku

ESPN Baseball Sudoku by Solomon, Michael. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781933060231.

Step up to the plate and face the next generation of sudoku! Mastered sudoku but want to take it to the next level? ESPN Baseball Sudoku puts a new spin on the wildly addictive puzzle phenomenon. In sports sudoku, 9 x 9 puzzle grids are solved using traditional sudoku techniques, but here the nine numbers are replaced by the starting positions in a baseball lineup: P, C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, LF, CF, RF. The 200 sports sudoku puzzles are arranged by difficulty level -- Little League (Easy), Minor League (Medium), Major League (Hard), and Hall of Fame (Expert) -- and require no math skills or baseball knowledge, only logic. (The book also contains some bonus All-Star puzzles -- sudoku grids composed of nine letters arranged in anagrams, which, when solved correctly, will reveal the name of a famous athlete.) With an easy-to-follow introduction explaining how these new puzzles work, this is sudoku as you’ve never played it before.
