Anyone remember the baseball movie about the scout?

[doc mercer]

I can see the dude ...

I think he played a role with Don Johnson in Miami Vice

Played an agent with the California Angels who discovers a pitcher in a small town
on a road trip when his position is being eliminated

I think the actors 1st name is Ray ....

you guys are sharp ... help me out as the beers are flowing

[Dirty]

yea... Edward James Olmos... finds that Kid that can throw over 100 when he is a scout for the California Angels... Haven't seen this movie in years... Great Movie....

It is not the one Called "The Scout" with Albert Brooks and Brendon Frasier

[doc mercer]

is that the guys name?

I was thinking Ray something?


I loved the scene where the car breaks down and he hears the game being played

[Dirty]

yea... I remember.... yes that is his name... I watch Miami Vice on Sleuth Channel all the time

[doc mercer]

He was great in that movie

Ray _____________

It was like Viota or something like that

[Dirty]

I loved when the kid went out there Nervous as a cat in a roomful of rocking Chairs, as he couldn't throw strikes unless Olmos was there, and after his warmup tosses he noticed he was catching him
