I recall the quote coming from some publishing that I copied from, but I guess it's possible I got it from TV. If it did come from a movie, it's gotta be one of those you named. Good detective work with the 'click' and the 'crack.' Doug, great suggestions. I recall the quote coming from some publishing that I copied from, but I guess it’s possible I got it from TV.

The click of the bat makes me think it was a quote from an early era. In the modern era people would say the crack of the bat. I also think it may have been said in the documentary When It Was A Game in a reference to Ty Cobb. I'm probably wrong on all fronts but for some reason I remember that quote as well. John,
