this morning i watched the movie 'the rookie' on DVD, the one with dennis quaid about a baseball coach who ends up in the major leagues. this was a recent purchase from amazon. i noticed that jim morris is in the closing credits as an umpire. i see this often when based on a true story where the subject of the story gets a small role in the movie. only the ending shows the main character pitching in the majors. i see this fairly often where the story is mainly about how they got there. once the movie was done it was time to get on the road to the st paul saints baseball game. there was a team card set giveaway. and it was super-hero day so there was somebody dressed up as spider man, saints beat indianapolis 7-6. i liked how the saints got an early lead on a manufactured run. a walk stolen base wild pitch and sac-fly. the long ball was small help as both were solo shots. the home team was behind for a few innings. but there was an inning where they got three triples and led again, this time for good. the simpsons seemed to be inspired by taylor swift and her army of fans. late in the evening i went on a walk and found 93 cents. i had some popcorn at home after the game as i saw some with it at the game. and i bought a pair of socks at the game to replace my pair of saints socks. hopefully it is another long run and i know it was aided by being willing to sew them up for a while.
