A touching salute to two of the game's biggest stars, 13 December 2000
10/10
Author: OctarTheOgler from Claremont, CA

I have been a McGwire fan for as long as he's been in the majors, so this was a must-buy for me. The movie did not disappoint. The comments from teammates and other players throughout the leagues help the viewer get a good understanding of the pressures of being a major league slugger, and they display a reverence almost unseen nowadays.

I dutifully recommend this film to McGwire fans, Sosa fans, baseball fans, and heck... to anyone who appreciates a good documentary about our nation's pastime.
