For Love of the Game should be added. Yeah it's a love story, but the deep story of the career ending is great.

I know it wasn't on that list but 61* has always been a favorite. Eight Men Out is the only one on that list that I have enjoyed.

I like all the love Eight Men Out is getting. John Sayles is a great director

I love The Natural, it's one of my top two or three baseball movies of all time. But the OP gave a random list and was wanting info on those so I just didn't talk about other movies he should see. I figured he didn't list the common ones everybody knows for a reason.

I think that is the list of baseball movies on Netflix Instant. I pass through a lot of those when I am looking for a good sports movie to watch. Stealing Home is always one that is in my suggestions of movies I might like.

Eight Men Out
Stealing Home & Mr. Destiny are somewhat formulaic and sappy, but your SO will watch them with you (and SH might get you some action). Baseball is not all that significant in Mr. Destiny (but Renee Russo looks bangin' in that movie).

If you can't tell, most people liked Eight Men Out. I loved that movie and it's very rewatchable. Gave some great incite to the Black Sox Scandal.
