RIP. He starred in at least two baseball movies, Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings and, of course, Field of Dreams. Supposedly, he wasn’t much of a baseball fan.
He also made Star Wars, the hit it was too IMHO, without his voice as Darth Vader, I don't think it would have worked as well.
The greatest voice EVER. Always seemed like a great guy who would be fun to know. RIP Sir.
Also, The Sandlot.
Only fitting ti share this in a baseball group...
