We hope you are having a good summer. Summer is when some may enjoy spending time outdoors. You may go to the beach or a park. Some go to an amusement park. You may participate in or attend summer sports games.
One outdoor activity some may enjoy is baseball. In July there was the just the All-Star games for Baseball League. The American League beat the National League in the Major League. Some of the many foods that you can enjoy when you go to the stadium to see a game in person are Hot Dogs, Popcorn, Cotton Candy or even some Cracker Jacks. What foods do you enjoy the most when you have a chance to go to a game?
One of the good movies about Baseball is the movie “A League of Their Own.” It is a movie about the All-American Girls Softball League. You may not know but during World War II women were asked to come play baseball. The reason was that Major League Baseball would continue while the male players were away fighting in the war. This was happening all around the country during that time in all of the businesses in the country. The real problem came when the men came back and women who found they enjoyed working were forced to quit.
This movie was director by Penny Marshall of “Laverne and Shirley” fame. It stars Geena Davis as Dottie Hinson and Lori Petty as her sister Kit Keller. This movie also has Tom Hanks as The Peaches Manager, Jimmy Dugan. Some of the baseball players are Rosie O'Donnell as Doris Murphy, Madonna as Mae Mordabito. Megan Cavanagh as Marla Hooch and Penny Marshall’s daughter Tracy Reiner as Betty Spaghetti Horn. Penny’s brother Garry Marshall plays Walter Harvey. Garry you will know from many of the movies and television show he directed and produced. For example “Happy Days”, “Laverne and Shirley” and “Pretty Woman.” Then there is Jon Lovitz as Ernie Capadino. He is the baseball scout who went around the country to find the women to play in the league. Here is more about this movie.
If you are going to watch this movie why not make some of the snacks that you get at the stadium. Hot Dogs are really easy to make at home. Here is how.
