Charlie is the guy who threw the pitch to Babe Ruth when he hit his 'called shot' in the 1932 World Series. he gives his version of the event, which differs from the traditional version. We also meet Jerry Coleman who scored the first run of the 1957 World Series that day. He's smiling because the Yankees won but wouldn't be at the end of the series as the Milwaukee braves beat the Yanks that year.

 
The next week they had Bob Turley, the winnign pticher of Game 6. Jane meadows gets revenge by getting it right this time.
