Definitely 61* and Field of Dreams (think about Ray Liotta going from Shoeless Joe to a mobster in Good Fellas...great acting IMO)

The Pride of the Yankees, Sandlot, Field of Dreams.
Worst of all-time is - "The Babe Ruth Story " with William Bendix. Bill almost has that Ruth swing down.

I'd have to go with "For the Love of the Game", with "Major League" and "The Natural" a very close 2nd and 3rd. Followed by "Sandlot". Hell, I might even throw a vote towards "Mr. Baseball" making my top 5, although it would probably fall short. Now if we were to include movies only loosely related to baseball, "Baseketball" might be tops... Because, although satirical, it paints a pretty accurate picture of everything that is wrong with sports and/or athletes today. While also noting that our society is at a point, where no matter how innocent something can be, exploitation is inevitable and unavoidable. The good ol' days are gone.

Tony- haven't seen Bull Durham in a long time but I remember I did like it very much. Also shouldn't forget a film like Pride of the Yankees. A bit dated for sure, but still a classic.
And for those who haven't seen it, I recommend Moneyball. Not quite a classic but very good and worth the trip. Last edited by barrysloate; 11-19-2011 at 09:21 AM.

Someone mentioned a movie about Jimmy Piersall, I think it was called "Fear Strikes Out" and Anthony Perkins played Piersall.
