Who Would Play Your Favorite BaseVol in a Movie?

Kirby Connell by Sam Elliott
@preacherman20 Perhaps a good question to ask in the podcast?

 

[preacherman20]

Ok. But can I change my mind every week?

You can only change your mind when you have a flight to the west coast and watch half a movie on the flight out and the other half on the way back

Only if Kirby gets to give you a hard time about it. . Moneyball is a great movie. I made the mistake of telling a MLB Scout that, and he wasn’t amused. My favorite baseball movie is Field of Dreams.

Mine is probably major league. Thought Zander might like it seeing as there’s some great superstitions in there, never steal Jobu’s rum and hats for bats!

Moneyball. This is a very weird thread.

 

[DonDiego]

OK, ok...three way tie: Moneyball, Field of Dreams, and The Natural. That's it.

He looks a little like Jim Caviezel

 

[Volprofch05]

As per the original question from @taylorvol, I’ll agree with Elliott for Kirby and throw out the following casting possibilities. Don’t get mad at me!

Cortland Lawson - Jason Segel
Cam Sewell - Russell Brand
Jordan Beck - Brad Pitt
Drew Gilbert - Justin Bieber early years (sorry gilly)

I recall someone saying that Luc Lipcius is the spitting image of an actor, but don’t remember who it was

I beg forgiveness, prof. I’ve been spending too much time at the LV forum. Is that an acceptable excuse this close to the end of the semester?

Of course, no apologies in the baseball forum! I'll admit it took me a minute!

Gotta be thick skinned around here. Us noobs take quite a bit of abuse. What is said by our proclivity to hang around?

Apparently CFA gets cold, and for the first part of the season he’s covered up in a hooded sweatshirt and gloves. So when he’s all bundled up and strides out to the mound during a game, we call him (in a complimentary way) the Sith Lord of Pitching. Maybe it’s how opposing teams (and ump Jeff Macias) think of him too. Again, it’s meant in a complimentary way from a UT fan perspective.
