Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Robert went 3-for-5 with one RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Giants. Robert has gone 10-for-26 (.385) over his last six games, though his steal Monday was his first successful attempt in three tries in that span. The outfielder has had little sustained success in 2024, slashing .216/.273/.418 with 14 home runs, 18 steals, 32 RBI and 31 runs scored across 69 contests. Still, he's one of the White Sox's better bats and continues to see plenty of playing time in center field.

Shohei Ohtani ropes his NL-leading 39th HR of the season! pic.twitter.com/EJ56PryyoB— MLB (@MLB) August 18, 2024
Ohtani is on the verge of becoming the sixth player in MLB history to notch 40 homers and 40 stolen bases in a single season. Through 122 games, the designated hitter has 39 home runs and 37 stolen bases.The 40-40 club includes Ronald Acuna Jr., Alfonso Soriano, Alex Rodriguez, Barry Bonds and Jose Canseco. Ohtani could also join Bonds and Brady Anderson as the only players with 50 or more stolen bases and 50 or more homers in a season. Anderson had 53 stolen bases in 1992 and 50 homers in 1996, while Bonds had 52 stolen bases in 1992 and 73 home runs in 2001. With 37 games remaining on the Dodgers' schedule, there's still plenty of time for Ohtani to reach these milestones.
