- So what was that like?
- It was like coming this close to your dreams, and then watch them brush past you, like a stranger in a crowd.
- At the time, you don't think much of it. You know, we just don't recognize the most significant moments of our lives while they're happening.
- Back then I thought, Well, there'll be other days. I didn't realize that that was the only day.
- And now, Ray Kinsella, I want to ask you a question.
- What's so interesting about half an inning that would make you come all the way from Iowa to talk to me about it 50 years after it happened?
- I didn't really know till just now, but I think it's to ask you if you could do anything you wanted, if you could have... a wish?
- And you're the kind of a man who could grant me that wish?
- I don't know. I'm just asking.
- Well, you know, I never got to bat in the major leagues. I'd have liked to have had that chance, just once, to stare down a big-league pitcher. Stare him down and then just as he goes into his windup... wink. Make him think you know something he doesn't.
- The chance to squint at a sky so blue that it hurts your eyes just to look at it, to feel the tingle in your arms as you connect with the ball, run the bases, stretch a double into a triple and flop face first into third, wrap your arms around the bag.
- That's my wish, Ray Kinsella. That's my wish. Is there enough magic out there in the moonlight to make this dream come true?
