Three Run Jimmy Jack

I can't say it would make my favorite movie list, but Paycheck was a pretty good movie. Ben Affleck plays an engineer who has his memory erased after he does a big job. Then there is a lot of chasing and bad guys trying to get him and trick him into giving them things. In one scene the bad guys have hired a double of his girlfriend Uma Thurman to get something from him. Ben figures something is up, and to test her, he says, "If you are my girlfriend, what is my favorite baseball team?" The imposter doesn't know. But in walks Uma and bitchslaps the bitch and says, "That would be the RED SOX!" I think it is funny that Affleck would try to get the Red Sox into the plot of a scifi movie. Why not?
