Default OT: Check out trailer for The Silent Natural

This movie looks like it might be worth seeing. It's about a baseball player who was born deaf. It is based on a true story.

Player's name was Dummy Hoy who played professional ball from 1888-1902.
I never heard of him before and was wondering whether there are any cards made of him.

Didn't they come up with hand signals for Hoy and that's where today's hand signals originate from? I could be remembering wrong, but I thought I read that once.

Hoy is seated at left during his time with Oshkosh in 1887. Also on the team was HOFer Tommy McCarthy.

Nice if people learn about Hoy, but that may be the worst movie trailer I've ever seen.
