I was fashionably late in getting here but still managed to come in 44th. Cute puzzle.
Didn't get it at first, I was too simple! Still got 75th! Salt in [1] but I didn't catch it at first. Not baseball related.
Love it when no googling is necessary :-).

edit: Oops -- Computer's slow. Sorry for the double post.
Finally got it- I started down the wrong track, since the first several are ALSO current MLB first-basemen!
Woohoo! Thanks to my wonderful wife being in the room, I got a first on both this one AND the hyper and got my pumpkin.
[3] / [4] You may not have had to google most of these (based on your name you're a woman), but I hadn't even heard of a lot of these.
Woot --100th. Didn't have to Google... just look in my wife's closet. :-)
Not bad for taking some time right at 7:00 TST, to complain about last night's puzzle.
[8] LOL in re: complaining.
so caught up on trying to figure out what the second step might be that i never tried my result from the first (and only) step....no bonus points in the OWW for me tonight :( *sulking*
salt please?
You solved this puzzle in 41 seconds and were the 49th Tanga member to solve it.
... and had already solved the other two puzzles tonight. Not bad.
I shocked myself by knowing all of the names in the puzzle. :-O
[11] I sent you salt
[8] I want your wife's closet.
[7] If this were football team names, I'd be Googling. I feel your pain.
[2] I'm female and don't "do" baseball-theme puzzles. Unless, of course, it was about the food at the baseball park -- that's something I'd do. :)
man, kindof sad that I didn't have to google. Pretty good for a straight guy.
[15] Indeed. :-)
[14] Ya never know... that lacy, ribbony stuff in the background and the color scheme had me thinking baseball too... :)
OK, I got the word. And if I use the same idea as I did for the clues, I've got nothing
[18] If you've got a word, try that as the answer.
