The Sandlot – Scott Evans Interview (Special Episode)

On this special episode of Piecing It Together, I got the opportunity to interview Scott Evans, an author and inventor who also happens to be the guy who was the real kid that went over that wall to retrieve a baseball from a vicious dog named Hercules in the classic family film The Sandlot. Scott has a new book out called Pacoima Days about the true stories of his youth that led to both The Sandlot and another movie written by his brother, David Mickey Evans, Radio Flyer. We have a great conversation about his book and the movies that inspired and were inspired by The Sandlot

Pacoima Days is available now on Amazon and from Scott's website https://pacoimadays.com/

This past weekend he did a book signing at my friend Shawn Lane's No Regrets Bar here in Las Vegas. He'll be doing more signings around the country in the coming months, which you can also find out about on the website.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for any movies we discuss!

My 4th album, A Different Kind Of Dream is available NOW on iTunes and all other digital music stores! Make sure to check it out!

My brand-new music video “The Void” is available now on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qH-Z6BCeJLU&t=0s 

The song at the end of the episode is “Give Me Back That Toy Again," a song from my upcoming novelty album Who Wants Din-Din? by my pet-based group The Pup Pups. More details on its upcoming release will be announced soon!

About the Podcast

Piecing It Together Podcast
All Points West
A podcast about movies and the movies that inspired them. A good movie is the result of a large number of people both in front of and behind the camera combining to create a piece of art… But what about the movies that came before that inspired those filmmakers to make the movie? On Piecing It Together we figure out what the clear (and not so clear) influences were that make up the movies we love.
