Pitcher Sandy in the Baseball Hall of Fame crossword clue
8 Down · WSJ Crossword, June 22, 2026 · 6 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Pitcher Sandy in the Baseball Hall of Fame” is KOUFAX. It appears as 8 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 22, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Share and Share Alike” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 6 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 9 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with K and ends with X, and contains 3 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
