The Wizard of Oz, Ozzie Smith on The Baseball Bunch
By Peter Schiller on Apr 28, 2010 with Comments 4
This is one of the most popular episodes of The Baseball Bunch (which ran from 1982-85), featuring Hall of Fame SS Ozzie Smith (c. 1983)! This year is the 25th anniversary of the show ending, a show that I think should be revitalized to bring the younger generation back into the game! What do you think of that idea?
I couldn’t find a video of the show’s into, but after this two part video you’ll find a third which consists of the closing theme (but from another show).
This was one of my favorite shows growing up and Ozzie Smith is my All Time Favorite SS!
Here’s a picture of the Bunch with Hall of Famer Johnny Bench and The Chicken
Part 1 with Ozzie Smith, aka The Wizard of OZ!
Part 2 with Ozzie Smith
Aside from the scrolling text, this was the closing clip for every show!
As an added bonus, here’s an interview done a few years ago with some members of the Bunch some 25 years later…
