Andy dislikes the catcher. Ed's sister is engaged to the second baseman. The center fielder is taller than the right fielder. Harry and the third baseman live in the same building. Paul and Allen each won $20 from the pitcher at pinochle. Ed and the outfielders play poker during their free time. The pitcher's wife is the third baseman's sister. The pitcher, catcher, and infielders except Allen, Harry, and Andy, are shorter than Sam. Paul, Andy, and the shortstop lost $50 each at the racetrack. Paul, Harry, Bill, and the catcher took a trouncing from the second baseman at pool. Sam is involved in a divorce suit. The catcher and the third baseman each have two children. Ed, Paul, Jerry, the right fielder, and the center fielder are bachelors. The others are married. The shortstop, the third baseman, and Bill each cleaned up $100 betting on the fight. One of the outfielders is either Mike or Andy. Jerry is taller than Bill. Mike is shorter than Bill. Each of them is heavier than the third baseman.
Using these facts, determine the names of the men playing the various positions on the baseball team.
!!GoodLuck!!

Ah, what the hell... I'll give this a shot. Be back with ya in a few.
[Edit]
Got all but 3 positions down... almost there.
Trying to figure out how/if the betting info can be used here.
[Edit 2]
Okay, here goes. I just took an educated guess, judging by the pattern that was left before me, on the last three, but here's what I've got:
P - Bill
C - Ed
1B - Harry
2B - Jerry
3B - Andy
SS - Allen
RF - Mike
LF - Paul
CF - Sam

Only 2 right?
Maybe I'm interpreting some of this wrong...
i.e.:
Ed and the outfielders play poker during their free time. - Considering it takes 4 for a poker game, and there's only 3 outfield positions (LF,CF,RF), I'm presuming this statement means Ed is *not* an outfielder?
The pitcher, catcher, and infielders except Allen, Harry, and Andy, are shorter than Sam. - From this one I gathered that neither Allen, or Harry, or Andy, could be pitcher or catcher?
Also, could someone help me figure out the point of the betting information, or that little bit about Mike and Jerry being heavier than Bill?
