How come there has never been a baseball movie where a team wins the World Series?

It’s always the wildcard, or pennant. But never the whole thing?

The team just wins the game to get to the playoffs because the playoffs are too long and baseball/basketball series usually have a back and forth win/loss rhythm which isn't great for a movie.

Yeah but you'd have to yada yada over most of the playoffs and probably focus on an individual player's journey then triumph in the final game rather than the team.

I dunno but I liked how For Love of the Game took place over the course of one game, centered around an aging pitcher trying to toss a perfect game.

And yeah, IDGAF if I'm the only one who liked that movie.

You’re far from the only one. In fact… It’s my favorite baseball movie.
