2025 marks PressBox’s ninth annual Best Of edition celebrating the top people, performances and moments of the year.
Best Happy Gilmore
The best cameo in “Happy Gilmore 2” was … Alex Jackson?!?! Well, not quite.
With the Orioles up big on Colorado in July, the Rockies sent out infielder Buck Farmer to finish the game. Farmer lobbed Jackson a 47 mph pitch. Jackson walked up in the batter’s box as the pitch floated in, much like Happy Gilmore on the tee box, and hit a homer to right center.
Funny enough, the home run came one day after the sequel was released.
