The Baseball Reliquary & Burbank Library Present Philco TV Playhouse: 0 for 37 (1953)

I could not be in San Diego for the Dodger game but I am going to this event:

The Baseball Reliquary & Burbank library Present Philco Television playhouse: 0 for 37 (1953)

Introduced by Dan Einstein, Television Archivist, UCLA Film & television Archive

Screening: Thursday, September 27, 7:00 p.m.

Location: Burbank Central Library

auditorium

Address: 110 N. Glenoaks Blvd, Burbank, CA

From Terry Cannon:

Reliquarians young and old will enjoy the anniversary screening of “0 for 37″ this Thursday, September 27 at 7:00 p.m. at the Burbank Central Library. “0 for 37″ was originally aired 59 years ago, broadcast live on September 27, 1953 on the legendary Philco Television Playhouse. Starring James Broderick and Eva Marie Saint, “0 for 37″ is the story of a recently married major leaguer, considered one of the best players in the game, who goes through a prolonged batting slump, caused in large part by his worries about the new house his wife has bought. My, have times changed! The screening will be introduced by the one and only Dan Einstein, Television Archivist at the UCLA Film & Television Archive, who has graciously loaned the kinescope that will be shown. Incidentally, Thursday is also the closing night for the Baseball Reliquary’s exhibition, “Bad Moon Rising: Baseball and the Summer of ’68,” so drop by early and catch the display if you have not already done so. See you on Thursday!

It would be cool to watch it on a TV like above if you could get one to work.

Dodgers win in Colorado! Skinnyswag Dee Gordon goes deep!

I was coming out of work when I heard Dee Gordon hit a homerun. I stopped to double check that on MLB At Bat 12. Yep! is true! he hit one out! Of course I had to watch it too. He put it a few rows up. Congratulations @skinnyswag! Dee is in my baseball fantasy team. This time Dee could take his time running around the bases.

Pepe Yniguez wins the bet with Fernando Valenzuela. Pepe picked @skinnyswag Dee Gordon to hit a homerun this season. Fernando chose Mark Ellis. Dinner on Fernando.

Those two are not the only ones that had a bet going. About a month ago I was having dinner with friends Terry of http://www.baseballreliquary.org/ and Steve Seemayer of http://labluebum.com/. Terry bet Steve that Dee Gordon would hit a homerun this year. The bet: the big sum of $1.

Dodgers were leading 4-0 in the first inning but as we all know, no lead is safe in Colorado. The score ended up being 7-6. Javy Guerra, yes, Javy Guerra saved the game! The snuggie curse on Javy has been lifted. Not posting another picture with the snuggie. I don’t want to upset the baseball gods or Santa Rita, the Baseball saint.

I felt asleep adding this post. hit post before I was done so update below.

#20 MLB Fan ranking for April 2012. Don Sutton.
Thank you all that visit my blog! It came in at #20 for the MLB Fan blogs. #20 is Don Sutton retired number. I saw him briefly When Atlanta was at Dodger Stadium. I asked Don if I could have a picture with him. He asked for what. I said for my blog and he said no, something about a bad experience. I was OK with it so I told him “Have a great day!”

OK, so I don’t know what made me check this but did you know that Don Sutton never had a homerun?

I love all these events at the libraries! Here is a picture of Terry Cannon, the President and founder of the Reliquary and Stephen Seemayer. We are the Los Angeles Archives Bazaar at the Doheny Library, USC.

Another picture of Terry’s exhibition of the Baseball Reliquary at the Doheny Library. Let’s see if I can find my Baseball Reliquary t-shirt like the one in the picture.
