i sorta searched and didn't see anything, so here it goes.
Pick your starting lineup from baseball movies/TV.
1st, has to be fictional characters. So no Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Shoeless Joe type picks.
Whoever you pick has to play that position in the movie.
Can't just move guys around to stack a lineup.
8 defensive positions
1 DH
3 Starting pitchers
1 relief pitcher
can throw in coaches if you want for fun
fell free to give reasonings for each (and who they may have beat out for the gig)

My Lineup.
I tried to limit it to one player per movie/show, but that's not really a rule, so feel free to use multiple if you want.
C - Crash Davis (Bull Durham) career minor league HR leader
Honorable Mentions- Jake Taylor (Major League) and Hamilton Porter (The Sandlot). Taylor's knees are shot. And if Porter can't handle Big Chief, he's not ready for the big time yet.
1B - Lou Collins (Little Big League) has the clutch gene (even though Jr robbed him of the homer)
Honorable Mention - Clu Haywood (Major League) didn't get it because frick the Yankees, that's why.
2B - Marla Hooch (A League of Their Own) Switch hitter with power.
Honorable Mention - nobody really. not a lot of 2B's even get mentioned in movies.
3B - Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez (The Sandlot) never specifically plays a position (other than pinch running), but says "now i can practice all the positions" meaning he can slide in anywhere. Besides how many guys can honestly say they busted the guts out of a ball
Honorable Mention - Roger Dorn (Major League) afraid to give up his body and his one dive was worst I've ever seen in a movie
SS - Snoopy (The Peanuts) -
Honorable Mention - Nobody is beating out Snoopy. I said what I said.
OF - Roy Hobbs (The Natural)
OF - Kelly Leak (Bad News Bears)
OF - Daryl Palmer (The Slugger's Wife)
Honorable Mentions - Willie Mays Hayes (Major League) He runs like Hayes, but he hits like shite
DH - Stan Ross (mr. 3000)
Honorable Mentions - almost any other fictional character can go here Dottie Henson, Pedro Cerano, etc.
SP - Billy Chapel (For Love of the game) Threw a Perfect Game, so he's in
SP - Chet Stedman (Rookie of the Year) getting old, but still has the stinky cheese
SP - Sam Malone (Cheers) owns a bar, so leap frogs other contenders
RP - Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn (Major League) total domination as a closer
Manager - Lou Brown (Major League)
Pitching Coach - Larry (Bull Durham)
Bench Coach - Brickma (Rookie of the Year)

I think Sam was a reliever.
And Lou Collins is an absolute no brainer.
I'd have a hard time leaving out a lot of the Little Big League guys. But what about some of the opponents from Major League?

You can't leave the Babe out of your lineup.

fictional guys only.
so guess you could use "The Whammer" from The Natural in his place if you want.

Starting Pitcher: The Professor from It Happens Every Spring. I don't care if he's only throwing 50 MPH, with that wood repelling tonic he's untouchable.
Manager: Christie Cooper from the 1953 version of The Kid from Left Field. This movie taught me about putting a pitcher in at a different position to bring him back in to face more hitters.

I wondered why you left Shoeless Joe and the rest of the Field of Dreams players off.
