Flick Friday to Make a One-Time Return

In January, 2011 I started a feature I called "Flick Friday."  Each Friday during late January and throughout  February, I watched a baseball movie and then posted a review.  The idea was that watching a baseball movie would get my mind off of the cold winter weather.  By the time I wrapped up the feature, spring training was underway and I was able to see some real baseball.

I continued the feature through 2014.  Over those four years I wrote about Bull Durham, Rookie of the Year, Pride of the Yankees, The Natural, Bang the Drum Slowly, The Bad News Bears, A League of Their Own, Eight Men Out, Field of Dreams, Little Big League, Major League, Mr. Baseball, *61, Moneyball, Mr. 3000, The Rookie, Chasing 3000, Cobb,.42, Major League II, Trouble With the Curve, Fear Strikes Out, The Sandlot, and Diminished Capacity.

I stopped doing Flick Friday because I'd run out of decent baseball movies to review.  I asked for suggestion in 2018 and added four more, Fever Pitch Bingo Long, Long Gone, and It Happens Every Spring.

I recently discovered a baseball movie that came out in 2009 that I had never heard of. You most likely have never heard of it either.  It was an independent movie and had a very limited release.  I couldn't find any box office data.

Shame on me for not noticing because you'll never guess who had a role in the movie. And I really mean shame on me.

Come back tomorrow to find out about the movie and one of the actors.
