  1. Someone mentioned earlier that closers must have short memories. It appears Kenley forgot how good he was in the first game.
  2. He could still be traded. The Dodgers may want him back.
  3. Real time' is defined as the time elapsed in the movie equalling the time spent watching it.
  4. He was a great baseball player, he was a great fisherman, and he was an ace in the Korean War and crash landed his plane. I'm pretty sure that's more interesting then, let's say, most movies about real people. Oh, I forgot about his secret visits to the hospital to talk to kids suffering from cancer and how he pretty much created the Jimmy Fund. You're probably right; it wouldn't work in a movie. It would have to be a 5 part mini-series.
  5. Remember when Tony Perkins played the part of Jimmy Piersall in Fear Strikes Out. One could easily tell that Perkins had never played baseball a day in his life. He was much better as the owner of a motel.
  6. Except for all the broken lights and the bullet wound. At least Redford was wearing Ted's number.
  7. Still don't know why a movie was never made about Ted Williams. John Wayne would have been perfect for the part.
  8. Duh. That's what 'real time' means Max.
  9. I forgot about Garza and gave Kutter credit for 4 innings. Well Kutter had a nice 3 innings.
  10. High Noon was actually shot in real time.
  11. She also would have liked to have shot Alfred Hitchcock.
  12. No Shite. Didn't know about Maris. My heads OK; my walls are padded.
  13. Williams and Yaz. Classic trivia question.
  14. I corrected my post. It was 4 bad hombres.
  15. Wow. Gary Geiger. There's a name I haven't seen in a while.
  16. The sheriff was surrounded by 4 bad hombres and he survived. Reminds me of High Noon.
  17. One thing that's never mentioned is that Turner has experience playing 2nd base. Duvall could be the DH.
  18. I still consider game 6 of the '75 WS the greatest game I've ever seen. There were three amazing things that happened in that game.
  19. Maybe Fred wished he had also. Fenway was perfect for him.
  20. Speaking of unpadded walls and who shows up? Fred Lynn.
