A Trippy Little Film

Great little animated short recounting Dock Ellis' no-hitter-on-acid. Not Giants related, but very entertaining.

Wacky.

I know you nerds know NOTHING about the real game of baseball, or any other athletic endeavor requiring teamwork under physical stress.

I know all you local baseball/music fans are hip to the band called S.F. Seals and their frontperson Barbara Manning.

Her 1993 Matador CD EP release Baseball Trilogy contains a great song about Dock Ellis and his dosed
no-no. It also contains two other tracks:

1 Joltin’ Joe Dimaggio
2 Ballad Of Denny McLain
3 Dock Ellis

It’s out of print (Catalog#: OLE 064-2), but pretty easy to find on the web.

I’ve been a big Barbara Manning fan for many years. I wish the Giants would pick her to sing the National Anthem at the ballpark one of these years, I’m sure she’d love to do it.

Did you see this at the same time, and posted it on FB at the same time, or did you see me post it?

It’s awesome!
