Theatrical Release Information | See Details About All Versions
Cliff (Bill Cosby), Russell (Earle Hyman) and a pair of Negro Baseball League veterans named Frank (played by real life Major League hall-of-famer Frank Robinson) and Joe (Joe Black) spend a delightful afternoon swapping baseball stories. Miffed by this plebian conviviality, Cliff doctor friend Jim (Sullivan Walker) and his snobbish cohort Carleton (Norman Beaton) begin trading stories about the "gentleman's" game of cricket. One thing leads to another, and ere the sun sets Jim has challenged Cliff to a winner-take-all cricket match--in the Huxtable living room. Sportscaster Ahmad Rashad, the husband of series costar Phylicia Rashad, appears as a TV game-show host in a subplot involving a suddenly "brilliant" Olivia (Raven-Symone). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
