This movie captures the passion and essence of baseball like possibly no other movie. I'd rank it right up there with The Sandlot in terms of great baseball flicks.

I would agreeexcept for that ending. Dottie throwing the world series on account of her immature, jealous sister's poor little feelings ruined the whole thing for me. Just ugh. Dotted was SO selfish at the end. She failed her entire team when she threw the game, and the fact that she was smiling at the end Sigh. I still get angry because right up until that ending I LOVED the movie. Such a shame. There's no crying in baseball. If dottie's stupid lil sister couldn't take losing to her older sister, she should never have played the sport. And if dottie couldn't set aside her feelings towards her sister and play with all she's got she should've never joined up. They're both idiots in the end. Just my opinion, guess you can tell I feel strongly about this, lol.

Throwing the world series? You obviously think she dropped the ball on purpose, she didn't. If she wanted to throw the game why wouldn't she of just struck out instead of driving home the leading run in the previous half inning?

One of, yes. For me the all time best is Field of Dreams. Could be due to gender (I'm male), not because this movie is women's baseball, but because of the son/dad dynamic of FOD.

Field of Stupidity is THE worst baseball movie EVER made. There are dozens better. Tops is The Natural. Even the worst of the Major League movies is far better than that cornfield trash. Kevin Costner should seriously repent of it after doing the brilliant Bull Durham.

It makes my top ten favorite baseball movies despite so many familiar elements right down to "the big game" climax. I never even knew there had been an AAGPBL until I saw this.
