“The Rookie” (2002) - Another based-on-fact story. The focus is on the Rockford Peaches, and their star sister players Dottie Hinson and Kit Keller (Geena Davis and Lori Petty), as well as the team’s manager, the now-usually drunk former player Jimmy Dugan (Tom Hanks). “A League of their Own” (1992) - Based on real events in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League during WWII, when so many male players were being drafted, scouts went out looking for women to keep interest in the game. She begins filling the roster with bad players, including injured catcher Jake Taylor (Tom Berenger) and soon-to-be-paroled pitcher Ricky Vaughn (Charlie Sheen). “Major League” (1989) - The Cleveland Indians get a new owner, Rachel Phelps (Margaret Whitton), whose only desire is to make the team lose, thereby lowering attendance, so she can move it to Miami. One day he hears a voice in his cornfield, whispering, “If you build it, they will come.” That “it” is a baseball field, which he does indeed build. “Field of Dreams” (1989) - Another baseball fantasy film, another baseball film starring Kevin Costner, this time as rookie corn farmer and longtime baseball fan Roy Kinsella who, as a boy, refused to play catch with his father. John Sayles’ film is raw and gritty and terrifically acted.
