Williams is supposed to be a baseball nut. Here he's shown about to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a recent RedSox game. What's really funny and charming about this pic is that even while relaxing at the ol' ball game Williams still wears a black turtleneck.

I read in the Boston Herald that he did a concert last Friday. It looked like he conducted quite a bit of his work plus a little Herrmann, among other things.

Wow!! That's exactly what I thought when I saw the picture, hehe, by the way he's holding the ball.

Cool, my two passions, the music of the maestro and baseball

Uh-huh..and Robin Hood wears green tights 'cause it's drafty in Sherwood Forest. Quit tryin' to dispell the legend...! (heh heh heh...)

*single-handed clap*

Because JW wears a lot of turtle necks in public (when he's not wearing the "Maestro tuxedo tails") does not mean he has a preference for turtle necks. Not at all.

In fact, the E! true Hollywood Story from the night this photo was snapped? It was "Turtle Neck Night" at Fenway... and if you were the lucky person with the number 020832 in your souvenir program book, your middle name was Towner and you happened to score Star Wars, why then, you were in luck. The 'Sox wanted you to throw the first pitch of the game. E! True Hollywood story.

Hmmm, maybe not. Maybe HAL was just so retarded like the rest of us, he simply forgot he could go to weather.com to get the weather conditions.... and instead came to moviemusic.com for a small dose of education.
