Hey!

It’s Enrico Palazzo!

Perhaps the funniest baseball-related bit ever.

Wait a second

An Angels hitter hit a grand slam but you never see 4 on the scoreboard.

It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops.

It's even sillier than that

four guys round second base, which obviously wouldn’t happen on a GS.

great baseball scene

A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.

I don't know how this can not be on

anyone’s anyone’s (okay, any guy’s) list of favorite movie scenes, but it’s a shame to have that clip but without the rundown.

Also

the part of it that the playoffs most remind me of is just prior to that when he’s trying to delay the top of the seventh. The first two pitches are perfectly down the middle and he calls them balls. Then there’s a play at the plate, and the catcher is like four feet in front of the plate. The guy slides right into his glove and stops cold. Safe!

ROBOT UMPIRES WOULD DESTROY BASEBALL!

IF YOU WANT ROBOT UMPS YOU MUST WANT ROBOT PLAYERS! TEAMS GETTING SHAFTED BY BAD CALLS ARE WHAT WE WATCH FOR!!!

As long as the players getting shafted

are Yankees or Angels, I’m fine with human error.

Leslie Nielsen...

has done some real funny stuff like the Naked Gun series, Police Squad, and Airplane, but he’s done a lot of bad movies too.

Sadly, it appears they are going to do another Naked Gun Movie (scroll down to the end of “Recent Work”). It should come out next year. Probably not a good idea, but who knows.

Can't be any worse an idea than an A-Team remake

or any other sequel/prequel

because the film industry can’t make anything original these days. Once they’ve exhausted all the comic books and cartoons, what will they do?

Probably start on Charlie Chaplin remakes.
