I've watched this movie so much, I know the minutiae.. for instance, can anybody tell me the four letters Brown writes on the legal pad for Vaughn's improptu eye test?

I just re-read the thread and unless I missed it, the correct answer to the question hasn't been posted yet.

Same play, my question . . . Taylor puts the bunt and run on the pitch before, but gets brushed back with the pitch. Same play, one pitch later, Hayes breaks from second on the pitch, and the fateful play is history, at least on the silver screen. So my question, why didn't Hayes break on the pitch before? <<I know, because it's a friggen movie>>

No. Taylor didn't suggest the bunt until after Willie stole second on the first pitch. He then got brushed back after calling his shot on the second pitch, called his shot again and laid down the bunt on the third pitch.

I spent a few long nights as one of thousands of extras in the stands at old County Stadium for filming. This was one of the scenes.

It was weird watching it being filmed because all he REALLY did was point, and then run around the bases. No pitcher, no hitting, nothing. And they did about 20 takes of it before the director was satisfied.

Also saw Cerrano's HR filmed, and it was the same thing. He just kept running around the bases with the bat in his hand, but again with no pitcher and no hitting.

One night me and a buddy sneaked down near the Indians' dugout before filming shut down. Charlie Sheen threw his hat into the crowd and my buddy caught it. Problem was that was the only hat they had in his size, and the wardrobe manager begged my buddy to give it back. He did, but only after Sheen came back out and signed a baseball for him.

Good memories.

God, Norm, DO NOT tell me you're the fat guy in the grey tee-shirt I've been annoyed by for two decades now. You know, the guy they show running out from the stands after the Indians win not once, not twice... but three times... passing the exact same point so obviously that it blows continuity to all hell and back.

If you're him, I will be forced to hunt you down, kill you and display your severed head in a place of honor amongst my Tribe memorabilia.

HAHAHAHAHA!!! No, I wish I could claim that, but that wasn't me. We never got to rush the field the nights I was there.

Good thing. I was rocking a killer mullet, tie-dye shorts and football jerseys back then. Don't need that immortalized on the screen...

Darn. I was hoping you were the guy in orange with the big glasses you see when the crowd is chanting "Pedro, Pedro" in the last game.

Edit: That fuckin' poindexter makes me laugh every time I think about him.

Nah. I wish I could have weaseled my way into a shot at some point, but I was never able :'(

Norm was the guy asking for the autograph in the bar.

Nice hair.
