Your favorite baseball movie?

[TheFens]

Personally, I like "major league" beacuse I'm more of a comedy type of guy. Sure field of dreams and bull durham were good, but I like to laugh.

"No way! Too high!"

[FourZeroSix]

Don't have one.

[dirtdogman5]

1. Bull Durham- hillarious and very clever
2. Major League- "Just a bit outside."
3. Field of Dreams- tears me up
4. Eight Men Out- very underrated and very good information
5. Sandlot- You're killin' me Smalls!
6. The Natural- very inspiring
7. For the Love of the Game- also inspiring
8. Major League 2- decent laughs

[yeszir]

Definitely The Sandlot. Man that was a great moviel. In fact, I just recently saw it for the bajillionth time. "FOR-EH-VER"

For Love of the Game and The Natural, while not great movies, were EXCELENT books. I know this topic is geared more to movies, but anyone that's literate and a Baseball Fan (I'm assuming if you're on this board you're both) should read them.

I also hear W.P. Kinsella's "Shoeless Joe", which is the book which Field of Dreams is based on is also very good. I want to read that also.

BTW- Mostly the only books I read are baseball books (The Teammates, At Fenway, Summer of '49, The Long Ball, etc.).

Pride of the Yankees

[CalvnHobs6]

Sandlot is the best baseball movie ever. "The Jet stole home, the Jet stole home&#33;&#33;"
Major League is an excellent baseball movie. "Too high, too high&#33;"

:D I love New Englanders&#33;

[Zenny]

Has to be Sandlot. It&#39;s friggin&#39; hilarious and so true. That&#39;s exactly what backyard baseball is like, plus more swearing.

[Tek04]

A League of There Own....gotta love that movie :D

:lol: :lol: Ahahahaha&#33; And then you named every baseball movie ever made.

[roary]

The sandlot has got to be my favorite. It&#39;s one of the most classic movies ever made.

[CrespoBlows]

Major League with Bob Ueker is awesome&#33;

[YanksHater213]

my top 3 are major league 1 and 2 (3 sucked so bad), and the sandlot

[Jtfire99]

Sandlot and Field of Dreams

[yawkeyway]

I&#39;m partial to Rookie of the Year and the Sandlot. Both are great movies, especially for kids. Major League wins in the comedy section, but I probably like these other two more.

[GrassInZimsTeeth]

Absolutely The Sandot.

"You&#39;re killin&#39; me Smalls&#33;" - Hamilton "Ham" Porter

Honorable mention will go to the original Major League and who could forget The Bad News Bears?

[yeszir]

Haha, I see that that line has made it into your profile now. :D Awesome movie. I need to watch it again, I haven&#39;t seen it in a long time.
