So usually at the start of baseball season I have a Major League night with my brothers. But this year I have to fly solo.
We used to drive by Clark Fields when my brothers and I were little. We always looked for it because of the movie. https://clevelandhistorical.org/items/show/771 ">https://clevelandhistorical.org/items/sho...

During a playoff game I was walking the concourse and saw a guy in a gentry jersey. I had to tell him I appreciated the effort. Turns out he owned the real movie prop. This scene still breaks my heart.

Harry Doyle says your can tell a lot about the season by the first batter. In 1920 Graney was hit by a pitch. In 1948 Tucker walked.
For an opening day starter, you never hear about Kelner again for the rest of the movie.
