Guess what friends! There is crying in baseball. There's lots of crying in baseball. Especially when you're a Red Sox fan and your team has had the worse start in the clubs storied history. Things are looking up though, well sort of and I try to remain hopeful. I have stopped switching channels during the games and have put a plug on the bad language I seemed to mutter through my clinched teeth. Still there are times I just can't bear to watch. During these stressful times I will pop in one of my favorite baseball movies. Here's my list....swing batter batter swing!
- Fever Pitch (2005) Drew Barrymore and Jimmy Fallon. A very familiar story for obsessed Red Sox fans.
- Field of Dreams (1989)Kevin Costner, James Earl Jones. If you build it he will come.
- A League of Their Own (1992) Geena Davis, Tom Hanks and Madonna. Women's Baseball League during WWII. There's no crying in baseball. I love that line.
- The Natural (1984) Robert Redford, Glenn Close. A baseball player who has unnatural baseball talents.
- Bull Durham (1988) Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon. Will he make it to the "SHOW."
- For the Love of the Game (1999) Kevin Costner, Kelly Preston. An aging pitcher gives up much to play the game.
- The Rookie (2002) Dennis Quaid. A high school baseball coach makes it to the major leagues after his team wins the championship.
- Angels In the Outfield (1994) Danny Glover, Tony Danza and Christopher Lloyd. A young fan prays for a miracle.
- Sandlot (1993) James Earl Jones. Just about being a kid and loving baseball.
- Major League ( 1989) Tom Berenger, Charlie Sheen and Rene Russo. Raunchy and very funny.
