Stros Poll: Best baseball movie?

Bull Durham

Sandlot & Major League for me. The baseball stuff in Bull Durham is gold, but too much chick bullshit. Field of Dreams: too sappy. Natural: too sappy, but not as bad as FoD.

bitchassedness?

On Altuve’s HR …”typical Houston HR that barely gets over a short fence and is only a HR in this ballpark only”…

Said nothing about Tucker’s bomb caught at 409 and would have been a HR in most stadiums.

I’m surprised at how much this comment makes me want to fight.   

A boy and his Dad crossing space and time to bury the hatchet and have a catch is the best kind of sappy that was, is, or ever will be.  
 

Maybe I’m a sap, because I love Roy Hobbs’ happy ending.  
 

It also gets real dusty at my house when Jim Morris tells his son that he’s been called up to the big leagues.  Plus the Rookie gives us one of my favorite baseball movie quotes:23145446-2FFA-4AAA-BE36-808D109ACEE7.thumb.jpeg.433fd75be99b2a9c16fa814ae8139539.jpeg
