This week's Spotlight focuses on the Austin, Texas-based rock band White Denim, which is scheduled to play Club Congress Saturday.
White Denim's lead singer is James Petralli, whose father is former major league catcher Geno Petralli.
Geno Petralli played 12 seasons for the Rangers and Blue Jays.
Petralli led all of baseball in passed balls with 35 in 1987, 20 in 1988, and 20 in 1990. His 35 passed balls established a Major League single-season record.
Most of Petralli's past balls occurred when he was catching a famous knuckleball pitcher.
For a chance to win an audio book tell us the name of that knuckleballer, who pitched until he was 46 years old.
Phil Villarreal has worked for the Daily Star since birth, but he's been the movie critic since February 2001. You could say he's a fan of the cinema. Each day he wakes up to a plate of steaming scrambled movies, which he washes down with a glass of movie juice, all while watching a movie. In his free time he plays video games and watches movies. Phil's new book, the humorous, money saving guide "Secrets of a Stingy Scoundrel" is due out Sept. 1 and available for preorder.
What Don Cheadle told me

His next project is a biopic on Miles Davis.
Cheadle is taking on a “Ray”-like project by producing and starring in “Miles,” a Miles Davis biopic. Cheadle knows how to play the saxophone and is currently studying the trumpet to prepare for the role.
“I’m starting to play,” Cheadle said. “I saw him once before he died.”
He’s no gamer
When “Reign Over Me” was released last year, gamers geeked out over reports that he and Adam Sandler had invested considerable time playing “Shadow of the Colossus,” which plays a prominent role in the movie.
Contradicting reports that stars Adam Sandler and Don Cheadle spent significant time with the game to prepare for filming, Cheadle laughed and said he doesn’t play video games. He and Sandler didn’t rehearse their gaming scenes and other than taking the home briefly to let his kids play it, Cheadle didn’t touch the controller.
“I brought it home to my daughter and she tried to play it. She could never get past the first Colossus. I tried to help her, but she was better than me.”
Doesn’t play video games? Ha! What a traitor.
You see what I did there?
