To commemorate the 25th anniversary
of the 1993 movie "The Sandlot" the
Wilkes-Barre RailRiders held a
promotional give away at PNC Field. The
first 2,500 fans through the gates
received a Hamilton Ham Porter
bobblehead. Patrick Renna, who played
Porter in the film was at the game to
sign autographs, as was David Mickey
Evans, the Wilkes-Barre native who
directed and co-wrote the movie. At the
concession stand, fans were able to
purchase “The Hambino,” a pulled pork,
bacon, ham and cheese sandwich named
after the Porter character,
The open jersey on the bobblehead features the New York Yankees minor
league AAA affiliate RailRiders, SWB
jersey logo, worn over The "Hamibo's"
