Favorite Baseball Movies

[CouchCoach]

I do not like baseball and don't watch it, even the Series but I really like baseball movies and when the season begins, I start watching my collection and do the same with football.

My 3 favorites are:

The Natural
Major League
The Final Season, this is baseball's answer to Hoosiers.

I also like:
42
61*
Eight Men Out
A League of Their Own
Field of Dreams
The Perfect Season, this ranks 4th
Trouble with the Curve
Moneyball
For the Love of the Game
The Rookie

What are your top 3?

Bull Durham
For the Love of the Game
Major League

Field of Dreams is good but I don’t see it as purely a baseball movie. I guess the same can be said about For the Love of the Game too

It's that argument about Christmas movies. Bruce Willis said emphatically Die Hard is not a Christmas movie and I disagree. Just because it is not all about that subject doesn't disqualify it.

Mine is Eight Men Out because it's based off real events even though there are a few inaccuracies in the movie. I've always been fascinated with the 1919 Chicago Black Sox scandal.
BTW.... Shoeless Joe Jackson belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
