There’s something special about the No. 3 in baseball. Three strikes and you’re out. Three outs and your team is out. A game consists of three sets of three innings. Three times 30 gives you the distance between the bases. Three times 20 gives you the distance between the mound and home plate. What’s more exciting than seeing a player going for a “three-bagger?” Cubs manager David Ross wears No. 3. The White Sox retired Harold Baines’ No. 3. And, of course, Babe Ruth wore No. 3. Don’t forget the Three Musketeers, the Three Stooges, the Three Wise Monkeys, the Three Blind Mice, the Three Bears and Huey, Dewey and Louie, Donald Duck’s three nephews.
This brings us to the year 2023, a year that ends in “3.” Good luck with these three groups of three questions. Have fun, and learn a lot.
