I learned about it while watching an episode of the show. I think maybe it came up because his son had just been promoted to the big leagues. Anyway, Marshall said to his son through the TV, “I love you honey,” and one of the male celebs needled him for calling his son “honey.” Marshall firmly but politely let the celeb know that he’d call his son “honey” if he wanted to and to kindly take a hike.
Pretty sure you buzzed the tower on your brother a number of times. However, a whiffle ball causes so few life threatening injuries.
I haven't seen Peter Marshall's son's name in print in years.
Good snag. I wondered if anybody knew that the Hollywood Squares host had a baseball-playing son.

A long time ago indeed.
