    MLB ERA
    5.00
    1 *61
    2 Field of Dreams
    3 The Rookie
    4 The Sandlot
    5 Major League 1
    6 Major League II
    7 Major League Back to the Minors
    8 Rookie of the Year
    9 Little Big League
    10 Summer Catch
    11 Fever Pitch
    12 Angels in the Outfield

    I'm sure I missed a few but there were some of those mentioned that I haven't seen. My list is not in any kind of order. I'm a little surprised that no one has mentioned *61. That's a pretty good movie.

    Major League I and II,Pedro is a crack-up!

    The Sandlot is classic,I watch that on a monthly basis.

    Fever Pitch was good,though I hate the Red Sox (yet somehow I am engaged to a Sawx fan).

    The Sandlot...no doubt.

    Some of the others might be stories of real games and players ,etc., but nothing beats the pure baseball vibe you get from The Sandlot, IMO.

    I'm one that can't stand Field of Dreams...

    I like The Sandlot, The (Original) Bad News Bears, Eight Men Out, Damn Yankees, and Pride Of the Yankees

    why didn't you like Field of Dreams, DiamondDave? If you don't mind me asking. IMO, I just like the meaning behind the movie. It had more to do with healing relationships and life than baseball. At least that is what I got out of the movie. Baseball was the common bond between father and son. It was what drove them apart and brought them back together too.
