I was pleased to help hold the SAG-AFTRA banner in today’s #LaborDay parade in #Boston. As an #actor, I came dressed as a physician because, well, I’m not a doctor but I play one on #tv. (See my friend Russ Gannon in his #Eephus #baseball uniform. Go Riverdogs! He came dressed as his character, Bill Belinda, in the 2024 feature #film.)

A ★★★★ review of Eephus (2024)

Who would have thought that a movie about a bunch of middle aged guys (and some younger ones) in a friendly baseball game on a field scheduled for demolition in a few days would make such a fun watch.  Revealing the nature of camaraderie among guys getting older and just talking shit and feeling the weight of their years just hits home for me.  The film is paced unlike any other baseball movie you’ve ever seen.

The Endless Inning: Carson Lund’s Eephus and the Wiseman Effect
