Now, we know that Tom Hanks was a big fan of Evansville, IN when he filmed parts of 'A League of Their Own' at Bosse Field. Since I was in the movie with him...Ok technically, I never saw myself, but I really need to see it in 4K. Anyway, we were basically long distanced co-stars, so I have taken the LIBERTY of finding the Hanks family the perfect Evansville home.

Evansville, IN in a League of its Own

In a recent interview, on The Bill Simmons Podcast, Tom Hanks was asked to rank his top 3 Tom Hanks movies. His number 1 was A League of Their Own. Why?

"I would probably say A League of Their Own would be number 1 because all I did all summer was play baseball. I shagged [fly] balls, I ate turkey dogs, I played baseball all summer long in Evansville, IN. And I had all of my kids with me. I had all of my family with me. We lived in a house in the middle of cornfields. We went to Burger King at night and Dairy Queen in the afternoon. It was a great summer, and my family still speaks about it."
