1989 NBC. "The Cleveland Indian." John Ashton and and Richard Tyson mismatched buddy cop show. There was another show called Hardball on Fox about baseball. David Hemmings directed this episode. With Floyd "Red Crow" Westerman, Leon Rippy, Don Stark, Jeremy Roberts. Charlie "C.B." Battles (John Ashton) is the veteran cop about to be assigned to a desk job, and Joe "Kaz" Kaczierowski (Richard Tyson) is his new young partner who plays by his own rules.
A Native American elder is looking for his long lost great-grandson in L.A. and Kaz and Charlie decide to help him out. They soon find out the younger Rainbird had been doing time in Folsom for bank robbery and the money was never recovered. Leon Rippy plays Rainbird's corrupt parole officer who is also looking for him and the money.
Hardball is not a bad show and has some enthusiastic fans in the IMDb user reviews. There are several episodes available in parts on Youtube and I had watched the pilot movie previously. It doesn't appear that it has been seen much since it aired and eighteen episodes were produced.
