Summary

This week on Hix Nix Stix Pix: We step into the batter’s box with The Natural! We chose this classic to honor Robert Redford, but here’s the curveball—Josh, our resident baseball nut, has never seen it. Will “Wonderboy” knock it out of the park, or is this movie more of a swing-and-miss? We’re talking exploding stadium lights, silver bullets, Bump Bailey running through the wall, and whether Roy Hobbs is truly the best there ever was. Grab your peanuts and Cracker Jack—this episode goes all nine innings.
