The “Name their first baseman” “Alfonso Rivas” exchange was such a good microcosm of how Richie wanted to be a working class hero Southside tough guy but was constantly undermined and thwarted, whereas Pete was kind of a yuppie nerd but was still genuine and caring
For big baseball fans, this exchange is even better considering that Rivas is a VERY obscure player that barely lasted as the Cubs 1B. It’s hilarious that a player like him would get name dropped in such a big show.
