From wiki...
"Borbon was referenced in a joke in the movie Airplane! As Ted Striker's inner-dialogue is heard echoing in his mind, it resembles a stadium public address announcement, and he is heard thinking "Pinch hitting for Pedro Borbon...Manny Mota...Mota...Mota" (though Mota and Borbon never actually played on the same team)." Always a classic.
Top notch pitcher on some great teams.
