Sweet! I haven't seen this sitcom in years! This, Perfect Strangers, Just the ten of us, Growing pains...that was quality tv then.

@abysmalatrocious, I wish I did remember the episode, but no.. I just did a google search on key words like "Mr Belvedere, baseball game, wesly" , but if you find the episode link me :-)

@FULLmeltHASH Thanks! I'll see if I can find it somewhere online. You likely remember the episode. It was a time when everybody rooted for the parent to win over the child. Whether when you first watched it, or think about it, do you get choked up? After years of failure, George hitting that game-winning grand slam, even though it's just a show, HAD to get most of America fist-pumping! (like when Forrest Gump outran the bullies, or Mr. Miyagi took out the Cobra bullies!)

@abysmalatrocious, I did some searching and found it.. it's called "Mr Belvedere, The Field" it's not on youtube though, but you might find it on google.. season 6 episode 1, good luck.

On topic off topic, do you have the episode uploaded, where Mr. Belvedere invites some baseball greats to play against Wesley's team? I'd love to see that episode!
