Plot

While checking out old New Mexico newspaper obituaries, Mulder and Scully come across a 1947 death notice for Josh Exley (Jesse L. Martin), a Negro Baseball League player who boasted a truly incredible batting average. The two agents want to know why the picture accompanying the obit showed Exley standing side by side with X-Files founder Arthur Dales (M. Emmet Walsh) and the ineluctable alien bounty hunter (Brian Thompson). Written and directed by series star David Duchovny, the flashback-laden "The Unnatural" first aired April 25, 1999. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
