Helpful Hints
- 'Swung', 'during', and 'fourth quarter of' are our indicators — one tells us to reverse some letters, another to insert something, and the last to select specific letters.
- Our fodder is 'walking stick' and 'ballgame'. We'll need to find a short substitute for one and use the letters of the other, as directed by our indicator(s).
- The definition is 'Bully' — and that’s what our answer will mean. Think of a synonym.
