I'd agree with all three and add in For Love of the Game, The Sandlot, 61*, and The Natural

May be an unpopular opinion, but I HATE A field of Dreams. Hate it.

Point is, hard to pick just 3, but Major league and Bull Durham are definitely in there

First one that came to mind was The Natural. That's a great movie.


Field of Dreams


The Sandlot or Major League

Moneyball is another to add into the discussion for consideration.

Eight Men Out is far and away my favorite sports movie ever - not just baseball. I have watched it 6 or 7 times. Granted, they took some artistic license, but the story is sound.

Of course, I have always loved baseball history - and began playing historical fantasy baseball back in 1990 (and Strat-o-Matic in the early 1970’s).

Major League #1? Really?

1 Moneyball -- zero sentimentality, unlike most baseball pics, an insight like no other into the business of the game, and Best Picture nominee
2 The Natural -- America as it gets, will stand up throughout time
3 Field of Dreams -- ditto the above, also an Oscar nominee

Honorable mention for the small of a woman's back speech alone: Bull Durham

Come at me, bro.

John Sayles is a master of his craft. "Lone Star" still ranks right up there in my all time favorite movies.
