by Matt Christopher ‧ RELEASE DATE: April 22, 1976
Whereas the Pigeon With Tennis Elbow (1975) gave us coaching from beyond the grave, Bernie learns his game-winning submarine pitch from Dave who won't be able to throw it himself because he's dying of a liver disease. Death or no, attention is focused on the baseball diamond, and you'll recognize the delivery. . . though the aim is low and outside even for Christopher.
