On the flip-side, Jimmy Piersall and Harry Caray might have been one of the better play-by-play and color commentary combinations in baseball when they worked together with the White Sox! Very entertaining...they were in the booth almost 25 years ago to the day when the Disco Demolition promtion took place.
The book is good, the movie flawed because of Anthony Perkin's poor athletic ability. Bad compromise since Piersall was an elegant fielder and good hitter over a nearly 20 year major league career.
