Bay City Blues

Bay City Blues has one thing in common with the new CBS drama Clubhouse. It's about baseball. But the similarities end there. Bay City Blues was about a minor league baseball team called the Bay City Blue Birds. Clubhouse looks like it's about a Major League

team. The show, unfortunately, was short-lived. In the era before cable and satellite television, it was easier for a show to get

noticed. It was about an alcoholic bed-wetting minor league

pitcher and his loving wife played by a 25-year-old Sharon Stone.

This was before she became the famous movie actress she is

today. There was a different story every week and guest stars

came and went. It was a good show but unfortunately, it died

young.

Stephen Bocho was inspired by Ed McBain's 87 Precinct novels when he wrote this series. It was a spin-off of 'Hill Street Blues' and provided work for the 25 year old Sharon Stone. Nobody noticed her at this point, but what you do come away with after watching this series is how bland most 80's television series were.
