Default Check if a cell contains text compared to a range of cells

I'm trying to see if a single cell contains the same text as any
particular cell within a large range of cells. For instance if i have
a column with: (picture this is the first column)

Baseball Bat
Football Shoes
Baseball Glove
Soccer Ball
Golf Club
Turkey Sandwich

and a range of cells that have: (b column)

Baseball
Footbal
Soccer
Golf

I want the C column to return

Baseball
Football
Baseball
Soccer
Golf
#N/A

Is this possible?

Thanks!

-Anthony
