...Padres beat the Atlanta Braves for the Dodgers and the San Francisco Giants beat the Dodgers for the Braves. In the dugout getting ready to hit in the seventh inning, 39 and not so sure that this would not be his last at-bat ever, Giant Second Baseman Joe Morgan said he got to thinking of Ted Williams. (Do running backs ever break from the huddle thinking of Jim Brown?) In his final at-bat in 1960, Williams homered at Fenway Park. The Boston fans clamored for Williams to come back out of the dugout and take a final...
...Francisco Giant Joe Morgan had to smile when his friend Bill Russell, the basketball player, said mischievously, "Isn't it funny how those winning teams keep following you around?"

Sturges, whose spitball farces (The Lady Eve, The Miracle of Morgan's Creek) sped moviegoers giddily through World War II, might appreciate Bartel's continuance of that tradition, as actor and writerdirector, in high-camp style. His first feature, Private Parts (1973), was a Psycho drama about a winsome lad who makes love to a lifesize, water-filled, clear plastic doll...
