What’s the most interesting baseball quote you’ve ever heard?
This is definitely an opinion question…there aren’t any wrong answers.
I think one of the most interesting quotes I’ve ever heard is:
“During my 18 years, I came to bat 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and maybe walked 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at bats a season. That means I played seven years without ever hitting the ball.”
–Mickey Mantle
“Baseball? It’s just a game, as simple as a ball and a bat, yet as complex as the American spirit it symbolizes. It’s a sport, a business, and sometimes even a religion.”
- Ernie Harwell, MLB broadcaster
Clark, the Canadian Hockey Goalie

Final Season $9.79 Maybe your dad took you to ball games at Fenway, Wrigley, or Ebbets. Maybe the two of you watched broadcasts from Yankee Stadium or Candlestick Park, or listened as Red Barber or Vin Scully called the plays on radio. Or maybe he coached your team or just played catch with you in the yard. Chances are good that if you’re a baseball fan, your dad had something to do with it–and your thoughts of the sport evoke thoughts of him. If so, you will treasure The Final Season , a poignant true story about baseball and heroes, family and forgiveness, doubts and dreams, and a place that brings them all together. Growing up in the 60s and 70s, Tom Stanton lived for his Detroit Tigers. When Tiger Stadium began its 88th and final season, he vowed to attend all 81 home games in order to explore his attachment to the place where four generations of his family have shared baseball. Join him as he encounters idols, conjures decades past, and discovers the mysteries of a park where Cobb and Ruth played. Come along and sit beside Al Kaline on the dugout bench, eat popcorn with Elmore Leonard, hear Alice Cooper’s confessions, soak up the warmth of Ernie Harwell, see McGwire and Ripken up close, and meet Chicken Legs Rau, Bleacher Pete, Al the Usher, and a parade of fans who are anything but ordinary. By the autumn of his odyssey, Stanton comes to realize that his anguish isn’t just about the loss of a beloved ballpark but about his dad’s mortality, for at the heart of this story is the love between fathers and sons–a theme that resonates with baseball fans of all ages. |

Fifty-Nine In ’84: Old Hoss Radbourn Barehanded Baseball And The Greatest Season A Pitcher Ever Had $9.29 In 1884 Providence Grays pitcher Charles "Old Hoss" Radbourn won an astounding fifty-nine games-more than anyone in major-league history ever had before or has since. He then went on to win all three games of baseball’s first World Series. Fifty-nine in ’84 tells the dramatic story not only of that amazing feat of grit but also of big-league baseball two decades after the Civil War-a brutal bloody sport played barehanded the profession of uneducated hard-drinking men who thought little of cheating outrageously or maiming an opponent to win. It is the tale too of the woman Radbourn loved Carrie Stanhope the alluring proprietress of a boarding-house with shady overtones a married lady who was said to have personally known every man in the National League. Wonderfully entertaining Fifty-nine in ’84 is an indelible portrait of a legendary player and a fascinating little-known era of the national pastime. |

Opening Day: The Story Of Jackie Robinson’s First Season $5.59 April 15, 1947 , marked the most important opening day in baseball history. When Jackie Robinson stepped onto the diamond that afternoon at Ebbets Field, he became the first black man to break into major-league baseball in the twentieth century. World War II had just ended. Democracy had triumphed. Now Americans were beginning to press for justice on the home front — and Robinson had a chance to lead the way. He was an unlikely hero. He had little experience in organized baseball. His swing was far from graceful. And he was assigned to play first base, a position he had never tried before that season. But the biggest concern was his temper. Robinson was an angry man who played an aggressive style of ball. In order to succeed he would have to control himself in the face of what promised to be a brutal assault by opponents of integration. In Opening Day , Jonathan Eig tells the true story behind the national pastime’s most sacred myth. Along the way he offers new insights into events of sixty years ago and punctures some familiar legends. Was it true that the St. Louis Cardinals plotted to boycott their first home game against the Brooklyn Dodgers? Was Pee Wee Reese really Robinson’s closest ally on the team? Was Dixie Walker his greatest foe? How did Robinson handle the extraordinary stress of being the only black man in baseball and still manage to perform so well on the field? Opening Day is also the story of a team of underdogs that came together against tremendous odds to capture the pennant. Facing the powerful New York Yankees, Robinson and the Dodgers battled to the seventh game in one of the most thrilling World Series competitions of all time. Drawing on interviews with surviving players, sportswriters, and eyewitnesses, as well as newly discovered material from archives around the country, Jonathan Eig presents a fresh portrait of a ferocious competitor who embodied integration’s promise and helped launch the modern civil-rights era. Full of new details and thrilling action, Opening Day brings to life baseball’s ultimate story. |

Curb Your Enthusiasm – The Complete Third Season $31.28 Rated: NRSynopsis: Larry David’s inventive HBO series Curb Your Enthusiasm — which relies on talented actors to improvise their scenes from sketchy plot outlines — undergirds the ten episodes of Season 3 with an ongoing narrative that finds him investing with Ted Danson in a restaurant venture. The 2002 opener, “Chet’s Shirt,” has Larry blowing off his dentist’s lavish dinner soiree to attend the birthday party of his new partner’s daughter, only to find himself in need of emergency dental work after Danson’s child accidentally whacks him in the mouth with a baseball bat. Another regular in this season’s shows is Richard Lewis (playing himself, like Danson and many other guest stars), prominently featured in “The Benadryl Brownie,” involving Larry’s new infatuation with cell phones and an important message that goes awry with hilarious consequences. David’s trademark appreciation of black comedy informs “The Special Section” in which he uses his mother’s unexpected death as an excuse to decline unwanted invitations. The somewhat inflated threat of an imminent terrorist attack disrupts an Alanis Morissette benefit performance in what might be the year’s best show, “The Terrorist Attack,” and the season ends on a high note as the already-stressed Larry frantically copes with last-minute crises prior to the restaurant’s opening in “The Grand Opening.” Regular cast members Cheryl Hines and Jeff Garlin return as Larry’s wife and manager, respectively, with Michael York and Paul Reiser making frequent appearances as themselves. Some shows are a little weaker than others, but on balance this is an exceptionally strong group of episodes. PRODUCTION AND TECHNICAL NOTES:Aspect Ratio: Full FrameFeatures: 60 minutes of extras with the cast and directors at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in AspenLanguage: English, Français, FrançaisSubTitles: English, EspañolEditions: SubtitledTime: 5 Hours |

As it turned out the Dodgers were just the beginning and more than simply a book about the Dodgers SAFE AT HOME offers a view from the bleachers unlike any other as Alyssa gives a fans perspective on the heartache headache and joy that make every baseball season worth following. From arguing about the importance of baseball history to appreciating the quiet months of the off-season to criticizing Major League Baseballs response to the steroid scandal Alyssa intertwines her thoughts about the game with stories from her life bringing an intelligent wry and self-deprecating female voice to the world of baseball writing.
