This one’s for all you sports fans out there. Hello? Anyone? Bueller?
Famed Los Angeles Dodgers manager Joe Torre will make a cameo in the Feb. 8 episode of Castle, sources confirm to me exclusively.
Castle and Beckett cross paths with Torre while investigating the murder of a famous baseball player. We’ll come to learn that Beckett is a huge JT fan — so huge that she suffers a mini meltdown at the sight of him.
The episode also guest stars Reaper‘s Ray Wise as the dead player’s sports agent.
What say you, sports fans?

…I may be the only one, but I’m excited for it!
you’re not the only one. i’m hotly excited for it. when i lived in L.A. i wasn’t a dodger fan. i’m a yankee fan, but i became a dodger fan when joe took the helm, but i’m still a yankee fan. LOL
LOVE IT! Did Alyssa Milano have anything to do with this casting?!
AWESOME! Go Dodgers! Go Castle!
That brings up an interesting point: why would Joe Torre be involved in an NYPD case? He coaches the LA Dodgers now… It’d sort of be like having Shaq on NCIS:LA.
OMG, THIS IS AWESOME! I miss Joe Torre so much. I can’t wait!
As a NY Yankee fan, I say. Ok…..
yea, really, no mention of yankees? you mention the dodgers? pretty sure he managed the yankees for way longer…..but whatever. no qualms here.
Ray Wise is playing the dead player’s agent? I guess we know who dunnit! Here’s hoping they surprise us and let him play off-type.
I love Ray though, and I’m glad he’ll be appearing on my favorite procedural! Yay!
Eu, juntamente com meus irme3os de Ka, praitredamos numa jornada ao longo do feixe em busca do Gan. Muitos se3o os mundos, e todos eles giram em torno da Torre. Em cada mundo a Torre se materializa de uma maneira; algumas vezes, como uma rosa. Nf3s praitredamos em busca da rosa desse mundo para impedir que os homens baixos tomem posse dela e a destruam, lane7ando nosso mundo na escuride3o Todash, onde criaturas pervertidas que a mente humana ne3o pode, nem deve, conceber dariam fim em toda a existeancia.Nossas fanicas armas seriam a bene7e3o do Branco e o elo que une nosso Ka-tet. Como disse Cort: Controle as coisas que pode controlar, verme. Deixe tudo passar como a porra de um vento e, se tiver de cair, caia com os revf3lveres fumegando. Quantos mundos existem? Delah, responderia Roland Deschain, o faltimo da grande estirpe de cavaleiros de Gilead. Quantos enviados do branco devem ente3o existir, pessoas que repudiam o Dis e, como meu Ka-Tet, buscam a rosa de seu mundo a fim impedir a queda da Torre Negra? Muitas, inconte1veis. Em cada mundo, em cada universo, um Ka-tet como o meu faz sua parte. E a Torre range em suas bases, a despeito do esfore7o de todos. Oh, Discf3rdia.
I, for one, am super excited! Baseball, Joe Torre, and Castle? Three of my favorite things!
So excited! But as a Yankees fan I hope that I don’t have to see Joe wearing a Dodgers uniform. Breaks my heart.
Right there with you, Lola. OUCH.
Awesome! Plus, it’s great Beckett’s a sports fan. As a female sports fan myself, I always love when gals are sports savvy…
Love to see these special guest stars on this show.
I’m a *Red Sox* fan and I’m excited. I may hate the Yankees, but I always respected Joe Torre.
When I first read the headline on this post I was like, “What the hell is an ass-ist, like an ass specialist?”. I think I’m gonna seek some medical attention.
I think it’s someone who discriminates based on asses, marcus.
Yay! I can’t wait for new episodes of Castle, and I love that they’re making Beckett a big sports fan… although I’d prefer her being a football fan.
Well I know nothing about baseball but I’m always happy when EW mentions Castle!
Not a sports fan, but like the show. It sounds good to me. I hope this show continues to go and get better all the time.
Beckett passing out from being such a huge fan? I’m thinking this could be amazing to watch.
