I vote for The Natural. But I won't have a fit over Field of Dreams. |

The Natural, by all measures! I'd include The Bad News Bears for nostalgia value, too. I haven't seen too many others, none that were memorable. |

The Natural. Still get goose bumps at the end every time I watch the movie. |

Some good ones, but I'll go with "Major League", other than the Berenger unnecessary love affair, which added nothing to the movie. Great cast The late Bob Uecker Is great. Besides! Jobu says: "Is very bad not voting for Major League as best. Is very bad." 😉 |

My two favorites, The Natural and Field of Dreams are just dripping with mythic themes. |

Bull Durham, hands down. For lighter fare, Major League. |
| Shagnasty | 01 Jul 2025 4:15 p.m. PST |
Major League, Bull Durham and the Natural in that order. |
