Watched the Rifleman back in the day. Good show.

The story goes that the affection between them was real. Johnny loved baseball and Chuck was a former baseball and basketball pro.

Johnny would organize impromptu baseball games on the set with the crew when not in scene.

Chuck would sometimes join the games, but Johnny said that they'd always lose the baseball when Chuck was at bat.
