Ford, one hell of a pitcher. I watched the movie "61" about Roger Maris hitting 61 homer's in 1961 but I couldn't figure who played the part of Whitey Ford. Does anyone know the name of the actor, his face is very familiar.

I believe that was Anthony Michael Hall of the 80's brat pack fame, Jon.

I don't like whitey tighties anymore. Strictly boxers.

AWESOME Movie . . .

Yep, it was Anthony Michael Hall. I saw a bit of that last night too. Good movie.

Hall is the one, and *61 is one of the best sports movies ever made!

Very good movie. Was the actor who played Maris also the one who played Dale Earnhardt and can someone jog my memory on what his/their names are? Both were excellent performances.

Barry Pepper?

Yes, he played Earnhardt in 3: The Dale Earnhardt Story.

Love the movie 61. Can watch it any day of the week.

your right erik

Barry Pepper is one of my favorite actors . . .

He Played The Sharp-Shooter "Jackson" in the movie "Saving Private Ryan" . . . Very Underated Talent . . .

He was also in " The Green Mile " . . .

A great underrated or at least underpublicized actor.
