Episode 294 - Why The Naked Gun’s Baseball Scene Is a Hall of Fame Comedy Moment
Description
In this episode of Two Strike Noise, Jeff and Mark discuss Shin-Soo Choo stepping in as director of Baseball Queen, a new reality series where former female athletes take on the challenge of learning baseball from scratch. They also cover some fresh player nicknames, memorable closer entrances, and notable big-league debuts.
The main topic this week is the legendary baseball finale of the original The Naked Gun — packed with hilarious gags, surprising cameos, and behind-the-scenes baseball trivia that turned this ninth-inning chaos into one of the funniest sports scenes in movie history.
The episode wraps up with another round of Wax Pack Heroes, ripping into a stack of 1988 baseball cards to see which stars, surprises, and forgotten names we uncover.
