Woof!
1:03:07
Will you stop
with Roberto Clemente?

1:03:10
Henry Aaron was the greatest
right fielder of our generation.

1:03:13
- Could he run like Clemente?
- I'm gonna say one thing to you.

1:03:16
755 home runs.
Goodbye.

1:03:19
Clemente was killed in a plane crash.
1:03:21
- You're gonna blame that on Aaron?
- No. I'm just saying.

1:03:25
- Oh, baseball.
- You got something against baseball?

1:03:28
I used to live with a guy who was like a
baseball encyclopaedia. I just got flashes.

1:03:33
- You broke up with him cos of baseball?
- Uh, no.

1:03:36
We had different needs. I needed him
to treat me decently and get a job.

1:03:39
He needed to empty
my bank account and leave.

1:03:42
Ouch.
1:03:44
- So do you hate baseball?
- No, I like baseball.

1:03:48
I just never understood how you guys
can spend so much time discussing it.

1:03:52
I've been to games,
but I don't memorise...

1:03:54
...who played third base
for Pittsburgh in 1960.

1:03:58
Don Hoak.
1:03:59
- Beat you.
- See, that's exactly what I mean.

1:04:02
So what do you and your friends
talk about out there?

1:04:06
Well... real life.
1:04:10
Relationships.
Are they working, are they not?

1:04:13
Who's she seeing.
Is that working?

1:04:15
- No contest. We win.
- Why?

1:04:18
Honey, if that were
as interesting as baseball...

1:04:23
...they'd have cards for it
and sell it with gum.

1:04:27
Ed, I see by the sun
it's time for you to hibernate again.

1:04:32
You're right, I suppose.
I guess it is childish...

1:04:34
...but when I was about 18...
1:04:37
...and my dad and I couldn't
communicate about anything at all...

1:04:42
...we could still talk about baseball.
1:04:45
Now that was real.
1:04:52
You know what the secret of life is?
1:04:55
It's this.
1:04:58
One thing.
Just one thing.
