Errol with the Stars & Angels
Scroll down to the fifth clip, from the WPA Film Library, titled “Celebs at PCL Baseball Game”.
See Errol “playing baseball”, looking better at the plate than DiMaggio.*
Despite Errol’s best efforts and magnificent batting stance, this is just not cricket.
* Joltin’ Joe’s wife once wowed the crowd at this very same venue, long gone Gilmore Field,along with one of EF’s best friends, the great Mickey Rooney.
** It’s a close call, but Chuck Connors may have been in the pre-game show and playing for the Angels at this event with Errol, before he himself became a Hollywood star of the cinematic type, though not nearly as incandescent as either Errol or Marilyn.
