For grid #103, there is a square on the bottom right for Hall of Fame and /300 Avg. season. If you answer a really obscure player, like John Clarkson or Clark Griffith you can get a score of .00004%, which works out to 1/250,000 which is how many people completed grid #103.

Yours rates the lowest score I've seen and thanks for motivation to visit the Clarkson clan today! (John, Dad, Walter) -- plus Tim Keefe's close by. :-)

Wow, two hall of fame pitchers close by. Where are you in these pics?

They're buried in Cambridge Cemetery in Cambridge, MA. While B-R shows several more players buried there, FindAGrave.com lacks marker locations for some, so I'm seeking city help on the others. (Four more players rest in nearby Mt. Auburn Cemetery.)

Sort by the Cemetery column and scroll down to see everyone at each location: https://www.baseball-reference.com/bio/MA_buried.shtml

Wow, that is a very interesting feature of Baseball Reference. I went down a rabbit hole looking at where people are from and where they are buried.

Surprisingly, there is only one HOF player buried in the state of Virginia (I live in VA). Jud Wilson of the Negro Leagues is buried in Arlington Cemetery. I will have to check it out.

I wonder how many other cemeteries have multiple HOFers like the one in Cambridge?
