The Battered Bastards of Baseball

[VolnJC]

This is now one of my favorite sports documentaries of all time. It tells the story of the only independent baseball team at the time in a place where baseball had failed to attract fans.

Things you will learn from this film:

What former bat boy has been nominated for 3 Oscars?
Who invented Big League Chew?
How hard do B actors work in Hollywood?
Is baseball still a good ole boy network?
What can happen if you take a chance on something that you are passionate about?

It's on Netflix and well worth an hour and a fifteen minutes of your time.

I assumed this was about the 2016 Atlanta Braves. Carry on.

I thought this was a cooking thread.
