How many light fixtures (think bulbs) were needed to illuminate the field for night games and what was their wattage?

I know you think these two questions are ridiculous but it was just a simple way to give these two hints:

1) Gehringer times Ruth times Gehrig squared times Cool Papa Bell = Number of Lights

2) Grove times Dimaggio times Robby = Wattage

1) Gehringer times Ruth times Gehrig squared times Cool Papa Bell = Number of Lights

2 x 3 x (4^2) x 17 = 1,632 lights

2) Grove times Dimaggio times Robby = Wattage

10 x 5 x 12 = 600 watts

You got the lights but you got the wrong Robby.

10 x 5 x 20 = 1000 W ?
