The venerable actor who often played on both sides of the law passed away yesterday at the age of 83.
Not mentioned among his many credits in The New York Times‘ obituary were his two baseball roles:
- Milwaukee Brewers a fictional manager Gus Panas in the 2004 feature film Mr. 3000 starring the late Bernie Mac.
- And a real-life NY Yankees skipper in the 1997 TV-movie, Joe Torre: Curveballs Along the Way.
Saw the former (Sorvino is not in the trailer). Don’t remember the latter but guessing it wasn’t that great based on the the not-top-shelf actors who portrayed the players, not to mention the overly sentimental soundtrack.
