Sir Lancelot jousting Sir Turquine.
Or was it Maldamor?
I'm not sure.
Have you ever read Homer?
Homer?
Well, only homer I know
has four bases in it.
Homer lived ages ago
and wrote about heroes and gods.
And he would've written about baseball
had he seen you out there today.
You know what? Someday...
in the book.
I know I got it in me.
What will you hope to accomplish?
When I walk down the street, people
will say, "There goes Roy Hobbs.
The best there ever was. "
Is that all?
Well, what else is there?
Don't you know?
More glorious?
Do you have a girl?
Would you come
watch me play sometime?
Roy, you are priceless.
Will you?
Of course.
and never hit the end.
That's for sure, kid.
- Is that licorice?
- Never mind. Let's go to the hotel.
- How far is it to the stadium?
- We're going to the hotel first.
We gotta get over to the hotel.
I wanna get a drink.
- This is Harriet.
- Excuse me?
Harriet Bird, silly.
The door's open.
How'd you know I was staying here?
What's going on here?
Will you be the best
there ever was in the game?
That's right.
All right, kid. Throw strikes now.
Put something on it, now!
He's walking the whole ballpark,
and he's the best pitcher we got.
I should've been a farmer.
Since the day I was born,
I should have been a farmer.
I love chickens
and pigs and ducks.
I'm kind of fond
of nanny goats, I am.
Come on, Fowler!
Throw strikes!
Fowler's killing worms, Pop.
Hey, Fowler!
Don't you know how I hate...
...losing to the Pirates?
My ma urged me
to get out of this game.
When I was a kid,
she pleaded with me.
And I meant to, you know what I mean?
But she died.
Tough.
Now look at me.
I'm wet nurse to a last place,
dead-to-the-neck-up ball club...
...and I'm choking to death!
Wouldn't you think
...after all the years I spent
in this game?
Red, did you talk to my bastard
partner about the drinking fountain?
The Judge said he's working on it.
Working on it?
Son of a b*tch!
The day that snake walked
into this ballpark...
...one of the darkest
days of my life, Red.
What do we got here?
The Salvation Army Band?
- Pop Fisher?
- Who wants to know?
I'm Roy Hobbs,
your new right fielder.
My what?
It's right here.
- Scotty Carson sent you here?
- That's right.
He must be nuts.
Where do they find these guys?
Fella, you don't start playing ball
at your age, you retire.
Where'd he find you?
The Heeber Oilers.
They're semi-pro.
Semi-pro.
Schultz, go warm up.
You ever play organized ball
