Movie Revisited


I had long forgotten about this film until I found the DVD @ a thrift store. Yes, it was sorta dull & the near-ending sucked. Really? Blow the game in the 9th to run after some broad?

Guess the redeeming feature was Van Leemer. I remember just how hot he was! And the scene of him in leather pants...? :)~

As Dunn says before he leaves the game to run after her:

"A no-hitter in the Cape wouldn't even be in the Globe tomorrow. The right girl: that'll last you forever"

Don't get me wrong, I agree it was incredulous and corny. But he is right - a no hitter in a summer league, even the best summer league like the Cape Cod league, would not be considered a huge accomplishment.



Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

A no-hitter in the Cape could get you signed to a Minor League deal though. Throwing a no-hitter is something very special. Especially in the Cape Cod league. Years ago the Cape league was reserved for the best of the best in college baseball. It was one of the premier summer leagues in the US. Every mlb team has a scout at those games. Throwing a no-hitter away for a girl is a little crazy.
