A lot of young people don't know that baseball was our sport at one time. Down south on Sunday evenings in the summer, the baseball ⚾️ field was where you would find all our people. Classic clip!!!
What jumps out is how their clothes look so clean. Not clean from dirt. But they aren't dominated by logos. It looks so much more stylish. And like all old movies everyone is slim.
C Double 4 you right them was the days the 70s i think about it now when i used to go to the movies to watch The Mack Truck Turner Black Caesar Hell up in Harlem Foxy Brown Coffy
Remember that old Abbott and Costello bit "Who's On First, What's On Second, I Dunno at Third Base?" Well, this was Pimp at first base, Pimp at second base, Pimp at bat, Pimp pitching.
As I was watching this I looked at the name and heard his and I thought " Damn this cat sounds so familiar " then it hit me. He was the voice of Curly from the Harlem Globetrotters cartoon in 1970 through 1972 and revised the voice of Curly in the Super globetrotters cartoon in 1979
Does anybody know what park in Oakland this was filmed in? Or was it filmed in Oakland? It looks a heck of a lot like the East Bay Regional Park District
It was called The Great Migration. Alot blacks move8from the south in early 40s,50s, 60s. Some went north, Detroit, Chicago, New York and others went west to California and other places. There was still racism there, but just not as bad as it was in the south
@@daniellhead2741 What I read online the largest Southern migrants to New York City was South Carolinians, to Chicago the Mississippians, to Los Angeles the Texans. Plus the five largest Southern migrant groups to Oakland, California was, in numerical order, was the Arkansans - the Pointer Sisters parental statal origins, Louisianans, Texans, Mississippians, Alabamians. The Great Migration is divided between two phases (1910-1930) about 1.6 million Southern migrants. 1940-1970 about 5 million Southern migrants.

Very true even in the 70’s I can’t think of a bigger star in our community than Reggie Jackson⚾️
Wilt, Dr J, and MJ helped change that
@@jrobbin24 NO. DOMINICANS AND CUBANS CHANGED IT
My dad and great uncles was baseball players and coaches. And we in the Midwest
I'm in my 40s and from Md...my father used to take us to orioles games back at the old stadium I the early 80s...
There will never be an era with as much soul as the 70’s!!! ✊🏾🖤😎💨
AMEN!!!! Although the 60's is right up there. The 60's set it up..and the 70's brought all the swag.
Right on

The back catcher is the same reporter brother when Goldie pulled up to the red carpet at The Player Ball.
Yup. The late great Stu Gilliam. RIP

Yeah even though pimps are the most delicious poison.they did have remarkable personality.
"...Today's a holiday. Ain't nobody getting laid today." Nobody? "Eh. Eh"
The catcher was ahead of his time with his fashion sense, ey? Pimp!
Want the catcher Huggie Bear from Starcky and Hutch?
No tattooed woman 🙌
Indeed!👌🏾

This was in the middle of the A’s dynasty. Baseball was a big deal in Oakland in the early ‘70s.

Kiddro22 was one of the creepiest lines ever. Sounded like that one family member we know not to leave the kids around 🤦🏾♂️
B. Trap'R I think he was referring to the pimps who be out at night who be scouting and trying to add to their stable.
Kiddro22 my favorite line🤣🤣🤣🤣

Pimps playing baseball

Black men playing together.
Why my man got a shoulder holster on at a damn picnic?
Dave H because you never know
.... ain't nobody gettin' laid today. Nobody? Eh. Eh..
You never know!
Is that a real question?
The outfielder on Goldie's team. 😂😅
There would have been a lot less errors during this particular baseball game if everybody wasn't as high as the sky. But I digress.
Does anybody know what park in Oakland this was filmed in? Or was it filmed in Oakland? It looks a heck of a lot like the East Bay Regional Park District
According to "The Mack" documentary, it was filmed at Owen Jones Memorial Field in Oakland
Great flick
What's song they are playing?
Does anybody know the instrumental playing
They seemed like they were having fun for real! Peace!
Y’all don’t see that many criminals of today having a picnic like this
Who is Y'all?
Knowland Park, Oakland CA the first entrance of the ZOO!
The pitcher on the mound with orange outfit and yellow muster hat played a crook disguised as Miss. Wallace on the episode of Sanford and Son🤣🤣
The Players Picnic = the Players Ball minus the furs
Where can I get the music? I can't find it anywhere
is there a name for the groove playing in the background?
I think it's by Marvin Holmes & The Upsetters- they provided most of the non- Willie Hutch composed background music for the film.
Mmmaaann that nigga look EXACTLY like Master p 🤯
Was that Patty Hearst in the background? Sheeeeeeit
CLASSIC
Ted downing that bottle of Martel is some baller shit.
That was Terrible Tom on the cover pic.. A real Oakland Player.
Are most of these Oaklanders familial origins from Arkansas and Louisiana?.
Yes
