I enjoyed it. The doc itself is good, but I'm not a real big fan of Ed Burns' voice as the narrator.

Seaver was just dominant as a Met, and a Red in the first few years. Wow. I saw him once when the ChiSox beat the Brewers in April of '86 at County Stadium. He was real good that day. But seeing this old footage of him reminds me of just how stupid good he was in his prime. He was the perfect example of pitching mechanics. He was still approaching 100 mph in the ninth.
