MLB did a great job with this, and Fox broadcasters had great interviews and also a lot of flashbacks to the original movie, which brought back a lot of good memories.

Then I heard a rapping on my patio door, and I opened the blinds, and it turned out to be a surprise visit by my son, who says, "You wanna play catch?"

Ah, it was classic. It was pitch black out there, but we came out of the dark into the light, like Shoeless Joe emerging from the cornfield. It’s been several years since we've done this, and I'll pay for it in the morning when I get out of bed, :-0 But I couldn't think of a better way to end the night.

Alex And Dad Having A Catch-1.mkv

Jeff Hobbs - That's cool, Marty! Although it looks like your fastball may have lost a few ticks over the last year or decades.

Bob Wood - Way cool, Marty, and what an inspired move by Alex!

Tom Meade - Wow! Great move by your son…awesome moment.

Ed Hebscher - That is totally awesome. Corn Fields/ Apple Trees, it’s all the same!

JR Richardson - If there's no crying in baseball, why am I getting misty??

Jim McEneaney - What a great movie, and what a fabulous memory Alex created for you! Kudos to the camera person (I assume Diana!) for capturing such a great memory.

Al Keefer - Awesome video, Marty. I’ll take the tall guy’s fast ball.

Larry Smith - What a cool video, Marty! Think you'll last to the 5th round of the free agent draft? The Mirthies will really need some help on the mound.

Bob Braun - What a wonderful moment! Thanks for sharing it with us J
