Mike and 4 friends went to a baseball game on Saturday night. Everyone visited either the concession stand or the souvenir shop during a different inning of the game. Can you figure out each person's full name, what inning each made their purchase, what they bought, and what seat they were sitting in?
1) The seats are numbered from left to right.
2) One person has the same first initial for both their first and last names.
3) Mike did not purchase a baseball, nor did he leave during the 3rd inning. But he did sit to the left of Donna (who bought a program to remember her first ball game).
4) The 5 friends are Mr. Waterson, Donna, the person in seat 5, the person who made their purchase during the 8th inning, and the person who bought soda.
5) The person whose last name is Redding sat somewhere to the right of Tom, and immediately to the left of the person who bought hot dogs.
6) The friends were seated from left to right in this order: the person who made a purchase during the 6th inning, the person who bought a cap, Ms. Redding, the person who bought hot dogs, and Sue (who did not buy her item in the 1st inning).
7) Mike did not buy hot dogs, he bought a cap (but not during the 6th inning).
8) The hot dogs were purchased 5 innings before Mike made his purchase (his last name is not Waterson).
9) Mr. Beals did not make his purchase during the 6th inning.

You threw a curved ball, but I hit a ground ball for a home run. That takes a lot of work! I really enjoyed it.
I didn't know Sam Waterson and Tom Jones liked baseball and were friends.
would you believe that those names were not intentional??

Took two shots at the Grid to do it. Second time, I started out with Clue #8, and that time it went well, still taking some "crosshatching" of the grid to get it.
