Yup, we've got uniforms and everything, it's really great!

Isn't there a scene where Harry Doyle is wearing a jersey while calling a game?

That'd be a nice one to have. Forget everybody else, Doyle had the funniest lines in that movie.

Seen it 1,000 times and his "I don't know how these guys are laying off pitches that close" line still cracks me up.

 

How 'bout a White Sox jersey with "Parkman" on the back?

Athletics jersey with "Rexler"?

 

Gentry

 

I've seen both Dorn and Vaughn -- this dude I met who had a Vaughn jersey got it from his smoking ass hot wife who was partying after a Tribe game and said a number of a times how much he owes her for it, good times -- so I'd say Harris. Cerrano is well known, but Harris would be a real conversation starter, I think.

 

You could always go the "Major League II" route...

Rube Baker - Rookie catcher who couldn't toss the freakin' ball back to the pitcher.
Isuro Tanaka - One crazy dude.

 

"Juuuuust a bit outside."

 

"Driven towards Central America. Tomlinson will need a visa to catch that one."

 

problem with the whole clue haywood jersey -- besides it being giving the yankees money -- is they don't have names on the back of their jersey, so you know, nobody would get the joke

last year we were at jacobs field and had this exact same discussion

we decided, like you, vaughn was too cliche

there was dorn, support, lou brown, eddie harris, cerano, all very good choices

we also were thinking larson, 20, the guy who actually did get cut

or, maybe pepper leach, the bench coach

if they would have had major league era jerseys you could personalize at the ballpark, i probably would have one today

 

A Mackey Sasser jersey would also work. ;D

 

I'd go with Lou Brown just becuase, well, he's Lou Brown. Get back to the guy on the other line about the whitewalls and think about it.

And, for the record, it'd be nearly impossible to get a Haywood jersey for two reasons: 1. It's the fucking Yankees. Who on God's green earth wants to spend money on a yankees jersey, unless some really rich guy likes the way it feels when he wipes his ass with it.

2. It'd take a very astute observer to get the reference, because there are no names on any Yankees jersey.

I vote for the Lou Brown jersey in the road gray.

 

"That's all we got, one goddamn hit?"

 

"This guy threw at his own son at a father-son game."
