    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Jim Gannon is shown defiantly smoking after being asked not to. In real life Clark Gable smoked four packs of cigarettes a day.
    • Goofs
      When Pine corrects Gannon about the year of Bill Wambsganss' unassisted triple play in the World Series (1920), he says that was the first year the Series was a best-of-9 format. Actually, the 1919 Series (Cincinnati over White Sox) was best-of-9, as was the first Series of modern times in 1903. The last of the best-of-9 games World Series were, as Pine stated, in 1920 and 1921.
    • Quotes
      • James Gannon: How could you give up a real newspaper job for teaching?
      • Erica Stone: Well, that's a very good question, Mr. Gallagher. Maybe for the same reason that occasionally a musician wants to be a conductor, he wants to hear a hundred people play music the way he hears it.
