Berra and YES studio host Bob Lorenz will introduce a movie night called Yogi and a Movie that the regional sports channel will screen Thursday nights through March as well as discuss the movie in brief vignettes between reels and commercials. Up first: The Bad News Bears, the 1976 movie about a ragtag youth team starring Walter Matthau and Tatum O'Neal. Most but not all of the movies are baseball-related, from The Natural and A League of Their Own to Major League: Back to the Minors and The Bad News Bears Go to Japan.
