Museum of Fine Arts, Houston’s Films at Discovery Green

Clips and short films from the National Baseball Hall of Fame show Sandy Koufax, Mickey Mantle and other greats on the big screen

Both über-jocks and film geeks will appreciate a collection of film clips from the vault of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, showing today as part of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston’s Films at Discovery Green series. The two-hour montage of shorts and clips features both in-game highlights and off-field tidbits, like Sandy Koufax’s Gillette commercials and Mickey Mantle and Ted Williams testifying before Congress. Houstonians will feel a pang of nostalgia at footage from the first regular-season game played at the Astrodome. 8:30 p.m. 1500 McKinney For information, call 713-400-7336 or visit www.discoverygreen.com. Free.
Wed., June 4, 8:30 p.m., 2008
