The long awaited 61* Movie podcast is finally here! We break-down everything in the 2001 Billy Crystal film: portrayals of Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle, the look of the original Yankee Stadium, actor choices for beloved Yankees figures like Yogi Berra and Mel Allen, how then MLB commissioner Ford Frick was a jerk, the stress that Maris endured chasing Babe Ruth, why Yankees fans did not support Maris, the mystery “shot” that Mickey received, and much more.
REMINDER: If you plan to attend Yankees Spring Training this year, March 24-26 is the weekend to go. The Yankees have 3 home games and the Bronx Pinstripes team will be in Tampa.
