April 7, 1993 –
The 20th Century Fox film, The Sandlot, directed by David Mickey Evans, and starring Tom Guiry, Mike Vitar, Karen Allen, Denis Leary, and James Earl Jones, opened in the US and Canada on this date.
In order to establish the close bond between Smalls and Benny, the director had Tom Guiry and Mike Vitar meet and rehearse together weeks before the rest of the kids showed up to film. It worked so well that the other kids genuinely believed the two actors had been friends for a long time. To this day, Tom Guiry and Mike Vitar remained friends and kept in touch with each other since filming for this movie ended.
