I have never read the series and have no familiarity with the characters but let's have a guess. They turned out to be siblings?

No.
Johanna claimed Mouse was her little sister, but the truth was quite different.

Ding ding ding! Raz has the correct answer!
I'll admit I asked that question partly to get people to read the Lady Constantine miniseries, which was published 20 years ago but tends to be treated as an afterthought in the Sandman/Vertigo Canon.
It's a good story well told, and I also had one of my greatest social media experiences because of it, when I made Andy Diggle happy by telling him how much I like it.
Over to you, Raz.

Sorry for my tardiness, y'all! I have been interstate for a week!
Back in the day, the East and West Coast Avengers used to play baseball occasionally. Captain America warned Thor during one of these games that one of the West Coast Avengers cheats....who was the cheat and what caused Cap to think that?

Hawkeye, because it's something he would do?

It was Hawkeye, and while you are probably right about him generally being a big ol' cheater there was a specific thing he'd done that made Cap think that

Hmmmm what's the best way to answer this hahaha.... An arrow was definitely involved, but it's not really super relevant as to what particular arrow it was if that's a cryptic enough answer!

Did he randomly fire an arrow somewhere, in a suspicious way?

He challenged Grandmaster to pick the one of two arrows in his hands with a trick arrowhead attached, and when Grandmaster picked, the arrow he picked had nothing on it, which made him (apparently) lose Hawkeye's game and restore all of the Avengers (and maybe 4/5 of the universe?) to life. But actually, Grandmaster had picked the correct arrow, and Hawkeye detached the trick arrowhead in his hand when Grandmaster pulled his selection.

Much more cosmic than the "he replaced the arrow on a nearby church spire, with a powered one, to fool the others on which way the wind was blowing" guess I was going for.

Those East Coast Avengers-West Coast Avengers baseball games were the beginning of my monthly series of articles on baseball in comic books at Royals Review!
New question: How did Electro once lure Spider-Man into a trap atop the Statue of Liberty?

One wonders if Dr Druid might not have just retired to the bleachers to sip tea and let an illusion do the work for him re Electro and Spider-Man....I feel like I will know this when someone says it, but I can't remember - did he light up the torch with electricity?

No hostages, real or imagined.
The Statue of Liberty has particular significance for Spider-Man.

Correct! He used his electricity to impersonate the Human Torch's flame telling him they need to meet. And when Spider-Man got there, he was ambushed by the Frightful Four, of whom Electro was their new fourth member. After capturing him, they went after the FF, with the Trapster pretending to be Spider-Man!
