I thought I got the answer already, but if you're going to be so nit-picky
Its in miles. I mean the question is 'how many miles..." Where do leagues come in?

(Thanks to Serenoli for the assist, assuming Serenoli's hint is good.) Leagues come into play in the spring with the start of Baseball.

Picky Has Nothing To Do With Accuracy
The question has NOT been answered.
As I'm only on line ONCE for 9 min per day to try to avoid virus, etc. until my system is semi-protected again, If no one guesses this by tomorrow a.m. then I'll toss it for a new question.

I'm looking at my book and who and what are different than you state and since I'm the questioner, I must await the correct input. If you have the exact quote, tell me where.
