My five favorite baseball movies I watched over and over when I was younger and probably still could are Sandlot, Rookie of the Year, Angels in the Outfield, The Rookie, and Little Big League.

4. The Scout
5. Ken Burns Baseball. ( Not a movie, but the series is amazing. You will learn a lot about baseball.)

Really surprised that so many people did not put "The Natural" on their list. I love that movie so much. I know it is a bit dated and not having real people/teams is annoying, but it is amazing. Also love "For Love of the Game," but I think that is so much more baseball than most people like.

I enjoyed Eight Men Out and it should be in the Top 5 Best.

Overrated Club
- Money Ball (still waiting for something interesting to happen in that flick)
- Bull Durham (Susan Sarandon was the most obnoxious character in modern movie history)

Susan Sarandon is not a character. If the character she plays is the most obnoxious in modern movie history you either haven't seen many films or your definition is off. Only 2 people on Rotten Tomatoes don't like Bull Durham. Only one negative review is available and he seemingly prefers some film with Demi Moore and David Duchovny in it. Conclusion: you're both talking shite.
