The Three-Million- Dollar Ball
22 April 2024
The wealthy Lawrence Hammond and his wife Erin follow the GPS of his car to a resort and end in a deserted parking lot, where a criminal kills them. On the next morning, Monk and Sharona arrive at the crime scene to investigate the murder of the powerful man. Stottlemeyer and Randall Disher believe that Lawrence was the victim and investigate his enemies, but Monk believes Erin was the victim and Lawrence was a collateral damage. Monk investigates her personal life and finds that she was in love with the baseball player Scott Gregorio, who is close to break the record of the famous player Darryl Grant but was recently attacked by a man with a baseball bat. He contacts Scott, who is deeply affected by Erin's death, and they become friends during the investigation.

"Mr. Monk Goes to the Ballgame" is an episode recommended for fans of baseball. The empathy between Scott and Monk is nice since both are grieving the death of the beloved woman. The scene where Monk erases Michael Jordan's autograph in the football's ball of Grant's agent is one of the funniest scenes in the series. The dispute between Stottkemeyer's son and Benjy is silly. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Monk Vai ao Jogo" ("Monk Goes to the Game")
