I would've found room for some clips from Angels in the Outfield, Little Big League, Hardball, Tiger Town, original Bad News Bears, and the "baseball in film" at the end is unnecessary (yeah, no :censored:, dude. I didn't think we were watching actual baseball highlights), but still well done. And now I'm going to have to have a baseball movie marathon...

No shortstops after the tenth, after 11 innings no more center fielder etc. In International Women's Softball every team gets to put one player on second base. Then they have to deal with that. It's quick and stressful as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 It's completely illegitimate. I hate it.

SFGiants58 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Safeco is the only retractable roof stadium that did it right. Maybe Miller Park too, but that's a big maybe. MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMac Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 That thing looks like they dropped an airport hangar in the middle of Arlington and put up some random retro baseball stadium walls around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it looks like it's made of old weather baloons slapped on to an oversized barn. And to think it replaces The Ballpark at Arlington... Even the Metrodome looked better than that.
