Notnil, 20 A is hidden in the clue ...

notnil,
24a is a 2-3 term used in baseball

Thanks Malone and Muraria. Kicking myself over 20.

Notnil, glad we could help. I couldn't remember my answer to the other clue! I didn't enjoy this puzzle very much, so didn't keep it.

A pleasant, if undemanding, puzzle let down for a picky old pedant like me by historical inaccuracy. The thematic person did not lose the leftmost item in the grid - despite widespread belief (and an old rhyme).

Thanks, Jack- that was interesting, maybe more interesting than the puzzle itself. (I'm often peeved if puzzles are as 'undemanding' as this!)
