Margaret Whitton — who played Indians owner Rachel Phelps in “Major League” — has died at age 67.
She died peacefully at her home in Florida after a brief battle with cancer, this according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Whitton was GREAT in the ‘Major League’ movies — playing an owner rooting against her team so she could relocate ’em from Cleveland to Miami.
Her most memorable scene … when she crashed the Indians locker room when Lou Brown was complaining about the “bitch” who runs the team … and responded, “You wanted to talk to the bitch?”
Awesome.
Besides “Major League,” Whitton also appeared in “Little Monsters,” “The Man Without a Face” and “9 1/2 Weeks” and more.
