This puzzle is for home fans… that is, those whose home is 24 Across. Our four-word cheer circles the shaded base paths counterclockwise, starting in the first square past home and finishing, aptly, at home. Entries crossing the diamond’s base paths are clued as a group, but in random order and with lengths withheld. Eight answers are capitalized.

The instructions above are for this month's puzzle only. See a complete introduction to clue-solving.
