Editor’s Notes: Million Dollar Arm opens in wide theatrical release today, May 16th. 

In anticipation of the release of Million Dollar Arm, I’ve put together a small survey of the best baseball movies of all time. America’s pastime, baseball infuses the movies about it with a particular resonance, plays to ideas of national identity and makes these movies notable motion picture artifacts.

    Moneyball is such an incredible film, and like every single man of my generation, I have a soft spot for Field of Dreams. I’d also include Bull Durham and Major League here.

    Moneyball really is a deserving entry. Up there with Field of Dreams for me.

    No room for The Natural…another favourite of mine. Overall, a fantastic list.

    I’ve always had a soft spot for Bull Durham, which goes into so much other territory than just baseball…but yep, good to see Moneyball in there!
