Baseball in movies, then. So let me give you some examples I would say are some of my very favorites. And I am sure there may be many others I am failing to mention here. Including a scene that would perhaps be a guilty pleasure of mine outside of any ‘best of’ lists, were it not so over-the-top and from a series of movies I will never be able to take seriously – great track by Muse though. My three choices, though, are quite personal, but movies that kind of honor the influence and passion of baseball in their representation of the sport. They portray that euphoria. Before I do delve deep into what I managed to whittle down to three choices, take a look again at this bonus scene Naked Gun (1988). I’m telling you, it is still funny.
