FYI, the Sandlot cast was brought onto court at halftime of a recent Aggie men's basketball game. I have no idea why they were there, though.

Same at a Rockets game. They were in houston at an autograph convention. Assume it was a traveling one.

Ooh, spring training. Reminder to watch your favorite baseball movie. I'm shallow, so mine is "Major League."

Field of Dreams

Bull Durham
Sandlot
Little Big League
Moneyball

Sorry, I was wrong! It WAS the Rockets game. My daughter got us tickets for my Christmas. I got my basketball games mixed up.

Nothing shallow about the best sports movie of all time

Heck yes.

This is correct. Moneyball is up there for me too.

I wouldn't nominate them for best baseball movies, but I like 61* and A League of their Own is probably my favorite Tom Hanks movie.

Does "The Fan" count

Not at the top of my list, but have to mention Angels in the Outfield. Cast was insane.

Mike Burrows will start the Astros' second Grapefruit League game on Sunday.

I'm a shallow bad person. Movies I have never seen:

The Natural
The Sandlot
Angels in the Outfield
Eight Men Out
Mr Baseball
The Rookie
42
61*
Rookie of the Year

The list of baseball movies I have seen is way shorter than the list of ones I have not seen.

Talent for the Game with Edward James Olmos is underrated.

For love of the game
Sandlot
Field of Dream

for me

You at least have to see Bad News Bears in Breaking Training because they play at the Astrodome and

Bill Virdon, Cesar Cedeno, Enos Cabell, Ken Forsch, Bob Watson, and JR Richard are all in the movie. .

The lack of stuff around the Astrodome in this scene is staggering.

Bob Watson showing some acting chops with a couple of quality reactions. the Houston crowd 99% rednecks.

Hader is improving every day playing catch. De Los Santos (knee) is "moving slower" than the rest of the group, Espada said. "Improving, but not quite there."

Joe Espada: "He did mention that he was a little bit nervous today about his first live BP, but I like that. That's a human side of things, where sometimes we forget that these players do feel some of that when they're competing. But I'm excited about today." https://t.co/zSH152yvzS

Same.
But no love for Field of Dreams from y'all? Or is that like is Die Hard a Christmas movie?

---

It's a close 4th for me. Would also put The Rookie in a Top 5 with all of the above, with Rookie of the Year as honorable mention.


Edit: How the heck did I forget The Natural! Now I don't know....probably put that in the Top 3 and bump Sandlot down....

Sandlot
Moneyball
Major League
The Rookie
Angels in the Outfield

Have only seen clips or none of the others

Such an optimist!!

Major League and Rookie of the Year are my 2 favorites.

That said, I hate to admit, but Fever Pitch is a really fun basevall watch and one the wives will enjoy as well

I probably deserve all the ridicule I'll get for this but I actually liked "Trouble With The Curve." Probably solely because of Clint Eastwood.

But, I'm struggling to think of a baseball movie I didn't enjoy. If I had to rank a top 10 I probably go:
1) Sandlot
2) Major League
3) Bull Durham
4) Field of Dreams
5) The Natural
6) Rookie of the Year (maybe I'm hallucinating but I swear I can remember Raggies taunting opposing pitchers with "Pitcher's got a big butt.")
7) Moneyball
8) Mr. Baseball
9) Angels in the Outfield
10) Bad News Bears

And so help me, I liked "For Love of the Game" too.

Is there anyone who would want to join a fantasy baseball league?

I need to fill out basically a whole league. My old army friends just don't follow the MLB close enough to do another league this year.

Can we count The Naked Gun as a baseball movie? Leslie Nielsen as the umpire is a top 5 baseball related movie scene of all time

Enrico Palazzo! Enrico Palazzo!

Whose the catcher in the above videos?

Pretty amazing one of Imai's first experiences in the USA could be with Florida Man.
