...I think of the scene in "Good Will Hunting".
He missed that game because he had to see about a girl.

I got to see him play when my dad took me to see a Chicago White Sox game, I think it was during the late 1980s. My dad liked Fisk when he played for Boston because he would stick it to the NY Yankees.
Hoo yea this is one of the best base brawls of all time, Pinella thought he could stream roll Fisk, big mistake.
