COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. (AP) Baseball's Hall of Fame will honor "The Simpsons" on May 27 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the show's "Homer at the Bat" episode.

First televised on Feb. 20, 1992, "Homer at the Bat" featured future Hall of Famers Wade Boggs, Ken Griffey Jr. and Ozzie Smith among the ringers on Homer Simpson's Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team. Voices of actual players were used in the episode, which also included Jose Canseco, Roger Clemens, Don Mattingly, Steve Sax, Mike Scioscia and Darryl Strawberry.

Boggs and Smith are scheduled to appear at a round-table discussion at the Hall on May 27 that also includes episode executive producers Al Jean and Mike Reiss, director Jim Reardon, executive story editor Jeff Martin and casting director Bonnie Pietila.

The Hall's legends game is slated for that afternoon at Doubleday Field

I don't care what it takes. I want to see the entire team on the field at the same time, in uniform.

Sir, most of your players have retired and since...uh...passed on. In fact, your left fielder has been dead for 127 years.

Then get me new players, living players! Search the american league, the national league, the negro league!

I frequently referenced Don Mattingly's sideburns at my previous job when given instructions that were stupid or senseless.

I do this all the time. One day someone I say it to will get the reference, and then we'll live happily ever after together.

Terrible rendition. He never says, "go crazy".

Homer - "No tv and no beer make Homer something something".

Marge - "Go crazy?"

Homer - "Don't mind if I do!"
