[sltayo]

@olddude521, those are my 3 favorite moments too!

[MsTVRetro]

So funny!  I love Mister Ed.

[410missmonkeyful]

ed was just horsing around that day.

[thekingcobra63]

when TV was simple, pure, and funny as hell.

[meechmom]

if you do this epsiode in slow motion where Ed slides, it looks like they made a horse out of some concrete and pulled it with a truck to home palte! It's hilarious!

[VivaLaEquus]

@meechmom Yea if you pause it you can see a rod where "Mr. Eds" head is.

[meechmom]

if you do this epsiode in slow motion where Ed slides, it looks like they made a horse out of some concret and pulle dit with a truck to home palte! It's hilarious!

[iburwick28]

He is better than the Red Sox this week!

[Goulak27]

Imagine the torture they must have put that poor horse through to get him to do all those stupid tricks. Poor Mr Ed.

[VivaLaEquus]

@Goulak27 I hope your kidding, that horse was not tortured it's the same kind of trick training like rex peterson does with docs keepin time aka black beauty.

[Chizman69Denver]

"SLIDE ED..SLIDE!!!!!" love this clip

[hotroddy97]

lmao i never saw this episode gosh im crying its so funny. never knew how great this show was ans still is.

[16LAD]

[olddude521]

This is the number 3 best. mr. Ed moment. Number 2 is when he is surfing in Hawaii, and number 1 is when he flies the jet plane. Love that horse.!

[BLACKPUFFLEXTREME1]

For a guy my age I know what Mr. Ed is , and I LOVE it. If you have a converter box, and love Mr. Ed, you can still watch it.

[DavidJeffersonTull]

This is so hilarious. When he slides home! Ha! Triple Ha!

[varania7]

i love Mr.Ed..talking horse..i want to MARRY YOU...my favourite BASEBALL PLAYER..IS MR.ED...i found my soulmate...i love this show...THANKS A MILLION..

[ebolaboi]

@varania7 You're vile!!

[DavidJeffersonTull]

@varania7 Hey i love Mister Ed too. But marry him?? Are you a horse? [Please don't reply "of course, of course"]

[CrozetBob]

Koufax threw him a cookie!

[VonHendrixTV]

god i love this show!!! I remember when i was little i had a horse puppet....and i always used to pretend it was Mr. Ed... i would have conversations with him and everything!!!! Mr. Ed was a QUALITY tv show. Unlike most of the reality shows and stupid shit nowadays!!!! my favorite shows of all time? Mr. Ed, Gilligan's Island, and Bonanza.

[Tubetopfan1]

Aw come on! Mr. Ed must've been on steroids!

[harvestave]

I attended a game at Dodger stadium in 1962! However, it was the Angels vs. Cleveland. The Angels shared the stadium with the Dodgers. The Angels lost 7-3.

[RetroJenny]

This is hilarious. Mister Ed was a funny show.

[all66books]

Was that Willie Davis who said "I dont believe it" ?

[TabithaClaire]

The slide is too funny!

[Kurplutzo]

LOL!!! I can't stop laughing

[dodgerboy1988]

So funny

[ChizmanDenver]

"Slide Ed, SLIDE!!" classic

[rock6191]

Mr. Ed is teh awesome

[antiagingdr]

ed got game

[sportsoracle]

How many takes did it take where Roseboro jumps up on the batting cage? :)

[cd637299]

@sportsoracle ---This was played in reverse. He was hanging onto the cage, and just let go....then the film played backward.

[BLACKPUFFLEXTREME1]

This is my favorite Mr. Ed moment

[BLACKPUFFLEXTREME1]

for a guy my age, I love Mr. Ed!!!!

[josny1]

Love when Ed is excercising

[TheVineyarder]

would love to see the one where mr ed meets mae west

[ibtnm25]

LOLOLOLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cuznvinnie818]

I'm guessing this was about 1963 because Moose Skowron (# 14) was first baseman that year along with Ron Fairly.

[aberod11]

Wouldn't be surprised if the Dodgers really did hire a horse.

[momike99]

the only hitter Koufax couldn't get out

[mmcckkgg]

Durocher was no stranger to TV. In the early 50's when he managed the NY Giants and was married to Larraine Day, they had a TV program in NY. He was also on The Munsters and other shows.

[AK2927]

What a beautiful horse,

[Kidicarus9]

the best scene is 0:32

:D

[80skindagirl]

I love Mr. Ed!

[judo7975]

willie davis DID contribute in a previous world series though for the dodgers

[firecat6232]

I remember this episode! and watching it again STILL made me laugh like crazy.

I LOVE MR ED!!!

[dodgerdrei]

Right now I hear Mr. Ed, Leo Durocher, Johnny Roseboro, and now Willie Davis all laughing it up somewhere up in that Dodger Blue Sky....RIP Willie, you're now amongst other fellow Dodgers in that Dodger Blue Sky....

[milepost53]

This is the LA Walter O'malley dreamed of. Nice beatifull,new clean park with palm trees and no snow. If he can only see LA now with with 80,000 gang bangers and tech-9 drive-by shootings. LA is not any where the same as it was 45 years ago when Willie Davis, Maury Wills, Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale played in what used to be a safe place to live but no more.

[milepost53]

Wille Davis was a great player but he holds the record for most errors in an inning in the WS. In 1966, he made 3 vs Balt. -- 2 on the same play. Game 2, top of the 5th. He dropped 2 fly balls and made a wild throw to the infield on one of them.

[maruska51]

@milepost53 Hey "Milepost 53", I was at that game sitting in the lower left field boxes and I remember those 3 errors like it happened yesterday. You know what? Willie Davis was one of the most exciting players to watch, EVER. What good does it do, now that he's passed, to bring up those three errors?

I prefer to remember Willies for those many, many times when he would stretch an ordinary single into a double, or go easily from first to third on a routine, stop at second single. RIP, Willie!

[milepost53]

Well, I don't live in LA and when I think of Willie Davis, I think of that game. It has nothing to do with him as a person.

[glimmer2158]

Come on Koufax! Giving up a homer to a horse? Sheeesh.

[Heneryfordrules]

Willie Davis, may you rest in peace! You will be missed!

[River1Bandit]

RIP Willie Davis.

[bettydaw1970]

only hank aaron and mr. ed could really hit sandy koufax!!!

[pointguard11]

what was aaron's batting average off of Koufax?

[ripperduck]

It's nice to see Dodger Stadium when it was relatively new and so damn clean. It was almost antiseptic in its appearance...

[ChizmanDenver]

His not so smart. He forgot to touch 2nd base...LOL

[juan833cheer]

Poor Johnny Roseboro, he had to get out of the way as Mr. Ed Slid home, LOL!!!

[Scorpion1054]

L O L

[Fruth37]

I saw Leo Durocher on the Beverly Hillbillies and on The Munsters. I also remember some of the Dodgers on The Donna Reed Show and on Gilligan's Island.

[bettydaw1970]

i remember dtysdale on leave it to beaver, but never remember any players on gilligans island..

[Fruth37]

Jim Lebebvre and Al Ferrara played natives on High Man on the Totem Pole, Season 3

[Marckymarc71]

Durocher wasn't the Dodgers' manager--he was just a coach. Walter Alston was, of course, the Dodgers manager from the Brooklyn days through 1976.

[juan833cheer]

Leo was manager of the New York Giants who won the 1954 world series by sweeping the Cleveland Indians who won a whopping 111 games in '54; apparently that amazing catch by Willie Mays in Game 1 was the turning point in that series as the Giants would blow past the tribe.

[mrakbaseball]

Alston had a .558 winning percantage. Not bad. Only finishing below .500 4 times in 23 years.

[fcatf6]

One of my favorite Mr. Ed clips. Classic! Ed rocks!

[GITARBUB]

mr.edd smoked sandy kofax!!

[DanielPaul56]

He went out of the baseline!!! LOL

[mickeymantle7777]

Herman Munster did it better!!

Great video

[ThemysticalHorse]

Slide ED!! SLIDE! Lol

[ashloveus]

OMG the slide, wow so funny.........lol

[leocat99]

Mr Ed for President!

[gloryboundkev]

that is a smart horse, but he needed a better agent. he should have been in movies instead of that piddly tv show.

[markko17]

Koufax should have thrown him a curve instead of a fastball!!

[djmoore20041]

Drysdale would have beaned him in the head.

[horsegal913]

aww so cuteee

[brisco42]

What makes this scene brilliant is the fake Mister Ed sliding into home plate.LOL!

[Kiddman32]

What goes unnoticed here is catcher John Roseboro's act...

When Ed rounds third, he starts backing away from the plate, then shows some SERIOUS "hops" as he goes to the top of the batting cage when Ed hits the dirt...

Easy there, John,,, After all it was just a horse, not Juan Marichal, and he'd dropped the bat besides :)

[juan833blue]

"He's not so smart, he forgot to touch 2nd base" LOL!!!

[karatepro1]

fuck that was awesome

[kevinSpencer2]

I know that Ed and Wilbur are still arguing whether he touched second or not to this day!!!!

[mikitavi]

"SLIDE ED, SLIDE!" Obviously fake prop-horse is pulled with ropes acros the ground, fake hoof touches home base. Masterpiece!!!

Mister Ed kicked ass!

[juan833blue]

Was that the Same 1963 Dodger team that Swept the Yankees in the World Series?

[gre68]

your can never beat a 1 horse team

[ilovemred]

Look, I'm not a Mr. Ed apologist or anything, (even though it's my screen name) but his left rear leg clearly hits the 2nd base a 0:23. Wilbur is wrong!!

[mista123420]

ur right!

[twilight4ever192]

that was awesome

[gyrene1966]

They don't make sitcoms like this anymore!

[rocallin]

This will happen to Manny Ramirez if he continues getting horse anabolics

[DesiMakeupGrl]

I loved this horse as a kid...he's the best!!

[CalvinBee]

Big Papi's replacement?

[cyberwing777]

The part where he slides into home base is priceless! lol....

[BLACKPUFFLEXTREME1]

@cyberwing777 0:32 I agree

[reneecalling]

Yeah Ed!! You 'da man....I mean horse.

[losangeles1ca]

Safe!...Go Dodgers!

[starbabe58]

funny horse

[hssenior]

he was one smart horse

[Upinurfacetv]

mr ed rules the world

[george666gollin]

Durocher was the Dodger third base coach at the time (1963), not manager.

Some people say I am the Sandy Koufax of physics, because I am a genius!!! My wife sells mutant pork for food and my daughter is a lesbian too!!!!

[juan833blue]

Walter Alston was the Dodger manager in 1963.

[snoops71]

I'd love to see the rest of it, along with the time Mister Ed went surfing, drove a car, and flew a plane!

You're right, Mister Ed would definitely want his name spelled out;-)

[bedfordnhdonkey]

Holy shit! That horse slid in there better than zule did into Dana's refrigerator!!!

[whutdacrap]

ZZZUUUUULLLLLLLLEEEEEEEE!!!!!!­!

[baaboo1]

lol

[Dakers11]

I'm pretty sure there use to be a white rail along the top of the wall, about two feet (2) high. then the fence was moved in, and the white rail removed. It was kind of attractive to have it there. My family lived there before the stadium was built. Still have few pictures of it then. It was called La Loma( the Hill).

[kevinSpencer2]

That slide was the best i've seen in 25 years of watching baseball!! ROFL!

[Badgerinmaine]

Wilbur's lying. I've gone to the replay, and at :23 I believe there is indisputable visual evidence that Mr. Ed does in fact touch second with his left rear hoof. Now wonder people never believed Wilbur... :-)

To answer one of the questions below: Sandy Koufax is the pitcher who serves up Mister Ed's round-tripper.

[spectrum10]

Everyone please stop abbreviating mister as mr. Mister Ed does NOT want his title abbreviated, not even in jest. He told me so personally when WIlbur wasn't around.

[TheLizardKing1967]

I wish they would show Mr. Ed on TV Land. This is funny as hell.

[kbrass420]

i know same thing with the a-team

[eightbellsrocks]

thats cute!

[eagleso]

Mr.Ed was so funny!

I love Mr. Ed a lot.

[sdfeinstein]

So Mr. Ed could hit Sandy Koufax's curveball. Better than most of the National League in the mid 60's. One of the great scenes

[jaguarundie]

lol the whacha ma call it sliding made me pee my pants!!!!!!!

[kfbeau]

Sliding into home is just the best!

[gadee1118]

A little known fact. Mr Ed was Manny Ramirez in a previous life. How ironic 45 years ago they did a baseball spoof about this sandbagging, Jake and a nag of a baseball player. Life inmatates art.

A public service message from Red Sox Nation

[mdumas43073]

Who are you kidding? Not a day goes by that you don't wish Manny was still playing at Fenway.

C'mon, we're all anonymous here. You can admit it.

[written12]

I kind of remember this episode- but I didn't remember it was Sandy Koufax on the mound.

And isn't Dodger Stadium a beautiful park?I've never been out there- I've got to go.

By the way, I think there's a Munsters episode that involves the Dodgers as well.

[jstrewth]

And a Beverly Hillbillies episode, too. Apparently Leo Durocher made the Dodgers appear on a lot of sitcoms in the sixties. (And why not, considering they had just moved to L.A.)

I have been to Dodger Stadium numerous times in my youth, and it is a beautiful park.

[vitoduval]

Yes and Wes Parker was on the Brady Bunch too

[vitoduval]

It was a nice park until Fox messed up the outfield wall with murals....

[cheeababy1]

haha i love mr. ed!<3

[tamdoll39]

cofax was the pitcher

[belitnakoff]

Was that Mr. Ed or Mark McGuire?

[funkyle91]

Which one was Sandi Cofax

[fattyua]

Mr Bonds must have took double the dose because he only has 2 legs.

[crazydeaf9]

nice slide by the horn

[bigbobbydahmer]

Mister Ed and Barry Bonds take the same medication!

[munchkinthecat]

Hilarious!
