If you have every spent any time in

If you have every spent any time in baseball you'll love this movie and how accurate it is about the baseball establishment. It's a documentary on an independent baseball team who got to play against minor league teams for five seasons. It sounds made up, but it's not. Let the film wash over you and if you're under 50 you likely have no idea this ever happened. Final Score: 10/10 (It's my cup of tea)

It’s a lovely romantic tale of sport in

It’s a lovely romantic tale of sport in a country that usually doesn’t understand sport outside the corporate institutions that run major leagues. This type of team is far from atypical in English football which is why communities really relate to their teams. It’s good the US got a small taste of it at least once. Watched on Netflix.

This documentary reminded me of everything that I

This documentary reminded me of everything that I love about baseball. The heart, the grit, the never-quit determination and the fun. THE FUN. It's a heartwarming story about one man's dream of helping other people chase their own dreams. Bing Russell's pursuit of turning the forgotten and abandoned everyday folks into a team of inspiring leaders and players is one I respect and appreciate, both as a baseball lover and a compassionate human being. So glad I came across this film, because it brought a big, fat smile to my face and made me antsy for baseball season to return!
