Can't believe I'm the only one with "The Fan" on my list

So bad but also so blatantly the Barry Bonds story.

Anybody see "Trouble with the Curve", with Clint Eastwood and Amy Adams? Not a top 5 by any means, but I found it entertaining.

"Moneyball" is another good film that deserves some praise.

Oh yeah, Moneyball.. Definitely in my revised top 5. I bump my #4 (Pride of the Yanks) simply because I can't bring myself to bump Major League. Too many good memories. I saw both Major League and Field of Dreams in my little league uniform directly following games.

DeNiro was quite good actually, as was Wesley Snipes as Barry.

"Do you care now?!?"

The inaccuracies from a baseball standpoint were so numerous it makes me wonder if they were perhaps intentional.

I think the filmmaker was European and had never been to a baseball game. Need to check imdb when I get home. I personally couldn't stand the movie, but did love it at the end when there's some sort of emotional reunion (was it Snipes and his son), and everyone's happy.. While their teammate Kruk is lying dead, face down in the mud while none of his teammates or even emergency personnel tend to him. So classic!!

(3) *61
(4) Major League - Apparently you are in good hands with Jobu
