Frasier sings barbershop quartet
Season 6, Episode 2:
Fraiser must find a date for his high school reunion or he'll end up sitting with the barbershop quartet again. This is the end of the episode where he fails to find a date and reluctantly lends his voice.
It really shows off Kelsey Grammer's vocal range.

This is from the movie "Little Big League". The premise is that a kid named Billy inherits the Minnesota Twins in his grandfather's will. The prior scene to this one is Billy firing the manager (who his grandfather hired).

One of the most quotable lines from The Last Starfighter
Henry Rowengartner

His name is Henry Roengartner, but it's a running gag that his manager Martinella fails to get his last name right. Throughout the film, he refers to Henry primarily as "Kid", but these are the few times he takes a stab at calling him by his last name.

It's an underrated movie! It fits well with Rookie of The Year and Angels In The Outfield! It's every kid's dream and fantasy saying they can manage their team better than the adult coaches!
I only started watching baseball this year and I’ve learned enough while watching to understand 90% of the situation.
When I think of this movie three words come to mind: KEN GRIFFEY JUNIOR 😊
RIP John Ashton - a really good character actor for many decades.
RIP John Ashton
R.I.P. John Ashton
Rip John Ashton. Great job here
Rest in peace, John Ashton.
Rest in peace, Mac
& Today we've just learned the loss, John Ashton passed away at the age of 76.....rest easy.
Very sad day. His scenes will always live on.
This movie goes way harder then you would think
Best moments of the movie! 😂
Such an underrated baseball movie. Watched it last night for the first time in years and I forgot how much I loved it
Happy 30th anniversary, Little Big League! I don't know if anyone cares enough about this movie to make a next-gen sequel but my idea was that Billy (or perhaps now Bill?) is obviously all grown up with a wife and daughter of his own (about same age as Billy in 1994) but her dad gets killed in a car wreck and inherits the team. But nobody except her dad would've ever guessed that not only did she inherit her dad's genius or strategy but she's also a moneyball freak too!
dark af, bro
Man… they really don’t make movies like this anymore
VHS / DVD sales used to power these movies to a profit. With that gone...
randomly thought about this scene today 25 years after I saw it as a kid, YT never disappoints
If this happened today: “What do you do?” “Whatever the analytics guys tell me to do.” “Correct.” End of scene.
Billy sounded completely competent and mack had no answer for him. Loved how unrealistic yet realistic this movie seemed to me as a kid lol
Do anyone know who the other actors in that quartet is called?
They're genuinely good lol
One of Dad's most classic scenes we all love❤🎬
Wait was your dad in this?

Poor Frasier. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As much as I love this scene and this movie, one still has to suspend disbelief. Because if this situation happened in reality, with a manager getting fired during the season, what would actually happen is the bench coach would become the interim manager for the rest of the season. Then, after the season, the team would either promote him to full-time manager or hire a new manager. And, of course, this movie completely ignored the Ted Turner rule (owner cannot manage his team). But, again, it is a great movie. One of my favorite baseball movies.
I think they at least handwaved the Turner rule by specifically having the commissioner give his permission for Billy to take over ("it's OK with him if it's OK with you").
@@nmk537 Again, I think this movie just takes place in some alternate universe where there is no Ted Turner rule. Here, it couldn't just be waved off by the commissioner. In this movie, the commissioner gave permission because the manager in question was only twelve years old. And I don't think he ever really got permission. Billy Heywood played his mother against the commissioner, telling BOTH of them it was OK with the other if it was OK with them, but I don't think he ever directly asked his mother or the commissioner for permission. The GM was on the phone with the commissioner, and when the commissioner asked about Billy's mother, Billy told him to tell the commissioner that it was OK with her if it was OK with him. Then in the next scene, Billy told his mother that the commissioner said that it was OK with him if it was OK with her. Again, I think he played them off of each other and didn't actually ask either one!
lol what the hell
I love this scene (though it's a little unrealistic for a 12-year old to be this emotionally stable/sharp). It shows how this movie doesn't pull any punches when it coms to understanding the complexity and logic of managing a baseball team
Why not? A child prodigy can take many different forms.
John Ashton's acting here is tremendous. He goes from thinking that he is going to school a little kid, to seeing Billy's baseball smarts, to arguing with him over strategy like Billy is an adult. I think Ashton is one of the more underrated character actors around
He just passed away today. May the man rest.
Hey, you know you're cool when you're part of the chess team's barbershop quartet 😂.
0:19 spitting facts 😂😂
Both leagues got it now 😆
The music and the pathos pay off so well...
I don't believe they had an executive office like that at the Metrodome

AKA President Gerald Ford!
Garden hoser!!!
This movie has the best baseball footage ever filmed. Everyone on screen could actually play ball. From the Pro ballplayers to the Pro actors. Jonathan Silverman and Timothy Busfield played on a Hollywood team in a pretty serious hardball league, so that's why they look so natural next to the Big League guys. This movie was made for the smartest of sports fans. They don''t dumb things down a bit (well maybe Griffey Jr. pulling up at 2nd on the trick pick-off).
Agreed. Usually I wouldn’t like that type of thing in a movie, but ken Griffey jr was so cool I liked seeing him show off 😆
I was watching a bts thing for this movie and they went out of their way to hire as many actual mlb players they could within budget and for the actors they had them audition by playing baseball first. If they can play and act they were hired. Of the kids baseball movies I actually liked this one more than rookie of the year.
@@bluepotato9745 Yes. I saw that BTS bit too. This is my fave movie of all time. 1 amazing baseball movie 2 excellent coming of age movie. Rookie of the Year is cute, but not realistic. LBL is.
Busfield and Silverman played in a rec league in Hollywood where did you hear that?
@@Utuubuploader2012Heard it in some Busfield interview in the mid 90's. Busfield pitched, on and off, for the semi-pro Sacramento Smokeys between 92 and 2000. As a starter he had a record of 30-12, playing against some of the nations top college and ex-pro players.
He can certainly out-manage Aaron Boone
Mack should have been fired on the spot after this, no? Even in the 90s, or any era for that matter, sacrifice bunting with your best hitter is bad baseball. Then he doubles down and suggests pinch hitting for their cleanup hitter. No good MLB major would be doing that unless they’re throwing the game on purpose. It’s hard to argue with Billy’s logic, even if it’s based in hypotheticals. However, if Scales is their fastest guy and leadoff hitter, how’s he on base with no one out when Lou is their three hitter? That likely means Scales is their two hitter instead for some reason. You probably wouldn’t want to try stealing a base with Lou up, so that’s why you have Scales hit leadoff so he can swipe a bag and you can avoid the double play entirely.
He suggested pinch hitting the 5, not cleanup. And Scales may have pinch ran of the 2 got on
@@TheIncredible2IC Regardless it’s stupid. There was also no indication that Scales was a pinch runner, but I get what you’re saying.
@@randymarsh6931 This is the 90s, it's way different vs. modern ball. Mac wanted to play small ball. There's different scenarios. Mac could be right going small, or Billy could be right. You can't predict baseball.
Mac was the pitching coach; you be a good pitching coach without knowing what tactical buttons to push offensively.
Better than fever pitch
Ever since the logic turned from; Owners pay players to do well, instead of, owners pay teams to win, this logic makes sense. But do you pay the team to win or do you pay the 3, 4, and 5 hitters to hit?
big chungus
Egos and pride hurt their chances at making the playoffs. The players when Billy first became their manager and then Billy when Lou started dating his mom. Griffey wouldn’t have even had a shot of making this amazing catch at the end they didn’t get in their own way.
Grandfather of memes
That kid so mastered the pissy face.
What's funny is that in today's MLB, a 12-year old probably could manage a team. There's no "situations and tendencies" anymore, they just plug everything into a computer and it spits out the answer.
That is true...mostly...but you can't just run it on full auto-pilot either. Observe: ruclips.net/video/lkF-22xvgNU/видео.htmlsi=CULfWPQOeTy97lDW
"What does he need me for?" Well every hero has to have a trusty sidekick, silly!
Plus, Mac was the pitching coach. Team's gotta have a pitching coach.
@@martyklestadt6766 Maybe it was different back then but isn't the bench coach usually the manager's trusty sidekick? IOW, the one who'd take over if the manager said one too many wrong words to the umpire?
@@JohnSmith-zw8vp Yes, that's correct. If this (firing a manager during the season) had happened in reality, the bench coach would generally become interim manager for the rest of the season.
This is the best scene in the whole movie, Mac had no idea what he was in for
Except Billy decided that Spencer was batting in that specific order, which Mac never specified :D
@@andrewomahony9260 The logic is that Billy knew by the fact that Jim Abbott was a starting pitcher and threw left-handed the Twins would use their normal batting order when facing a lefty.
@@SuperfanDKwatching this movie now as an adult, it’s a smart baseball movie
Can you re-upload this without the shitty popping audio?
Anyone know where I can find 'Night Nurses from Jersey'? Lol
I've always wondered how that scene ended up in a kid's movie.
"Eleven times in three days? Must have been a good movie."
@@ryanloftis1125 Boys his age hiding a stack of Playboys had already been done for a few generations by this point. Nothing all that unusual really.
I really like when this movie had real mlb players. That was so nice to see lots of real MLB players in that time.
Yet they couldn't get Kirby Puckett or any of the other real Twins for some reason...
@@JohnSmith-zw8vp well it was released before da players went on strike.
And because of this movie I still can’t stand Griffey to this day…
@@chadstearman perhaps u hated it when Griffey got into Cooperstown, u know u could at least respect his natural swing, he was a clean home run slugger at a time of when many big guys were using steroids and he deeply cared for his fans, fame never went 2 his head he was taught very well by his dad on how 2 be a team player!!!!!!!
@@bizzy24100 absolutely, I respect junior for not taking roids.
I wonder if whoever wrote this film ( a good one) got inspired by Jerry Jones who is owner, president and GM of the Cowboys. At least he knows he can't but honestly if he had football savy and knowledge he'd hire himself as head coach. Reminds me of that scenario with this movie of a owner (kid or otherwise) as a MLB manager.
So how come "America's Team" has not made even ONE NFC Championship Game appearance in over a quarter century?
Reminds me of Jerry Jones because he acts like a freakin child. He and Jimmy Johnson built the perfect team together but Jerry couldn't stand that Jimmy was getting all the credit. When you win back to back Super Bowls within 5 years of buying the team who gives a flying rip who gets more credit. It's not like they gave a damn bit of credit to Tom Landry and Tex Schram for already having Michael Irvin on the team, and everybody with half a brain knew Aikman was going to be their pick that year no matter who was doing the picking. I'm not saying the game hadn't passed Coach Landry and Tex by because it certainly had but no matter what Jimmy and Jerry decided they already had two of the three triplets in Dallas and let's not forget it was Landry and Tex that picked up Herschel Walker for a song and gave Jerry and Jimmy the big name star they needed to engineer the trade to Minnesota that brought all those draft picks and consequently Emmitt Smith to Dallas. And they were far from the only players that Tex and Landry put on the roster that won Super Bowl rings with Jerry and Jimmy. Now... I'm not implying that either Tex or Landry should get some major credit for what Jimmy and Jerry built but I am trying to show how stupid and childish it was for Jerry to squabble over that shit to the point where Jimmy wasn't coaching the team anymore. When you consider the fact that they only added one more Super Bowl ring after Jimmy left and how many seasons it's been since they've even gotten a chance to play for once and you also consider just how many coaches Jerry has been through since then you have to think the man's ego dug his own grave. Oh and just so we're clear Jimmy Johnson was being an idiot too since he proved pretty clearly since he left Dallas that Jerry must have had at least a little bit of influence in how that team was built since Jimmy hasn't done jack shit since then either.
Why didnt Billy just put Mack in charge from the start? He was bench coach at the time and 9 times out of 10 most in season interim manager hires are on staff. At the end he hired him anyway lol.
To quote pitch meeting "So the movie can happen." :D
@@MafiaGuido exactly. No movie w/o Billy. He was the main character and this movie is about a baseball team owned and coached by a kid.
This movie is about a baseball team owned and coached by a kid named Billy and not a guy named Mac. You just scrapped the whole movie.
Well sure, every hero needs a trusty sidekick!
Because he also thought that hiring Bobby Valentine would be a good move.
