I can't vote

Where is the "I'm not American! I could care less about baseball movies" option?

"You saying Jesus Christ can't hit a curve ball?"

Major League is the best.

I thought Sugar was brutal to sit through.

Best baseball movie?

How is The Sandlot not on this list? One of the few kid/sport movies that stand the test of time.

Clearly it's the criminally underrated movie, "The Sandlot".

Anything but the top two

I don't have anything against Costner. He's in one of my favorite flicks from the 80s (No Way Out), but a couple summers ago, I took in these Costner baseball movies that seem to have made his career, and ugh. Bull Durham was okay, but really, people, Field of Dreams? Ugh. Double ugh, even.

So annoying and dull, I had to watch it apportioned out over three nights, because I couldn't stay awake through the whole things. What a waste of a netflix rental.

During my baseball movie summer, I watched The Natural & Eight Men Out also, and both are extraordinarily better movies for me.
But, there's no beating the Euke's radio play by play in Major League. "He leads the league in offensive categories, including nosehairs!" How does it get better than that?!
Answer: It. Does. Not.

Baseball movies

Gentlemen - what is wrong with 94 % of your listeners? The clear choice is Eight Men Out. Through superb writing and directing, Sayles did a wonderful job capturing an infamous moment in baseball history.

Other?

Though I voted for Bull Durham, as I do believe it to be the best baseball movie, I would have given a second vote to Other because by Other, I mean THE SANDLOT.

Baseball Movie

Fear Strikes Out with Anthony Perkins. This choice might reveal that I'm not a baseball fan?

Bull Durham and Eight Men Out

Such a hard choice! It came down to the fact that I still watch Eight Men Out every time it's on TV, where I now only choose Bull Durham if nothing else is on. The cast, Jon Cusack's strongest performance. The underappreciated David Strathairn and Bill Irwin. And then there's John Sayles' storytelling...

Bull of Dreams? Field of Durham?

I was really torn between Bull Durham and Field of Dreams. Glad to see they're currently tied.

Major League

How can you not love Major League? It's life in baseball. It's the real comraderie in the locker room, the training, and the will of 25 guys who become more than the sum of their parts. One of the best.

Best Baseball Movie

"Little Big League" --everything that "Rookie of the Year" wasn't... (It's a bit odd that both leads had parts in "American Pie 2".

Major League is a close second.
