Daily Dialogue — March 10, 2014

“While the fans are waiting for the first pitch, they are being entertained by the stadium’s Angel Vision, showing some unusual moments in baseball over the years!”

— The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988), written by Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, Pat Proft

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Sports Announcer, suggested by @dproII. Today’s suggestion by Illimani.

Trivia: The baseball blooper reel shows a ballplayer’s head coming off when he crashes into a fence. This scene is a tribute to a quote from San Diego Padres announcer Jerry Coleman: “Winfield goes back to the wall. He hits his head on the wall — and it rolls off! It’s rolling all the way back to second base! This is a terrible thing for the Padres.”

Dialogue On Dialogue: If you’re going for a sports announcer in a script, why not for a REAL one like Dick Engberg!
