Actor who believes in absorbing every detail in classical movies, because THEY really DON'T make 'em like that anymore.

Satchel Paige's windup is unreal to watch 😮

"When I was a boy growing up in Cuba, Luis Tiant was a National Hero.
Now I'm 36 and he's 37."
Tony Perez.
"I've never heard anything like that, "Loo-Eee, Loo-Eee, Loo-Eee" chanting in Fenway Park in my life.
But I'll tell you one thing:
Luis Tiant deserved every bit of it."

my favourite movie of all time

[Jim Koenigsberger @Jimfrombaseball]

"After I won 21 games, I said, "This isn't that hard.
I can do this every year for maybe 10, 15 years.
I was going to be in the HOF.
I really thought that.
You know you can throw a ball harder than any man in the world."
Jim Bouton.
“I can still remember Pete Rose, on the top step of the dugout screaming, “F*** you, Shakespeare.”
Jim Bouton.

"After the game, Jackie Robinson came into our clubhouse and shook my hand.
Jackie said, 'You're a helluva ballplayer and you've got a great future.'
I thought that was a classy gesture, one I wasn't then capable of making.
I was a bad loser.
What meant even more was what Jackie told the press:
'Mantle beat us.
He was the difference between the two teams.
They didn't miss DiMaggio.'
I have to admit, I became a Jackie Robinson fan on the spot.
And when I think of that World Series, his gesture is what comes to mind.
Here was a player who had without doubt suffered more abuse, more taunts and more hatred than any player in the history of the game.
And he had made a special effort to compliment and encourage a young white kid from Oklahoma."
Mickey Mantle.

@PitchingNinja ...so solid🥸

Satchel Paige once intentionally walked 2 hitters so he could to face Josh Gibson with the Bases Loaded.

Just so Satchel could prove who was the Best, 1 on 1. 🤣

David Wells paid a $2500 fine for wearing Babe Ruth’s game worn Yankee baseball cap. He bought the cap for $35K. Asked to wear it in a game, was told “No” and did it anyway. Wells paid the fine in singles, then sold the hat 13 years later at auction for $535K.

In 1958, Link Wray didn't need lyrics to stir up controversy, his raw, gritty instrumental track got banned from radio play, no vocals, just pure sound...It's the only time an instrumental was considered to rebellious for the airwaves...😜🎸🚫

Never try to one up Don Rickles 😂😂

Bobby cox sent Leo Mazzone to the mound so he could tell Greg Maddux to walk Luis Gonzalez. Mad Dog refused to do it, told Leo give me two pitches and I’ll make him pop up to 3b. Two pitches later, pop up to chipper jones at 3rd. Unbelievable story from “one of a kind”
