The best film about baseball ever made!, 29 July 2001
Author: (ddazzo@pacbell.net) from auburn, california

I saw this little gem back in 1991. What a terrific picture! It's a crime that William Russ was not oscar-nominated for his priceless performance. This film says more about the game of baseball than any other that I've seen. Just terrific!
