Sinopse
It was an all-California World Series - the first ever between two wild card teams - and both the Anaheim Angels and the San Francisco Giants were in search of a dream. The Angels were in the World Series for the first time in their 42-year history. The Giants hadn't won one since they moved to San Francisco in 1958. The result was a Fall Classic that will forever be remembered for one of the most astonishing comebacks in history.
Um menino chega a um importante momento de sua vida ao enfrentar uma decisão crucia. Embora as probabilidades não estejam a seu favor, ele começa uma aventura para recuperar o bastão de beisebol de Babe Ruth antes do jogo decisivo do campeonato de 1932.

Gil acredita ser o único capaz de ajudar seu ídolo e está disposto a tudo para ver seu time vencer...tudo mesmo. Sua adoração se transforma em uma perigosa obsessão sem limites e sem piedade. Ele coloca vidas em risco e pode estar em qualquer lugar, nas arquibancadas, no campo, no vestiário, ou bem ao lado de sua vítima!
Combinando eventos reais e fictícios e centralizado na história final da World Series do baseball de 1986, o filme mostra um dia na vida de um autor de peças teatrais que foge da sua própria noite de estreia para assistir o jogo histórico.
Iniciando a carreira nas segregadas ligas negras e chegando à Major League Baseball, o astro Willie Mays se torna uma das primeiras celebridades negras dos Estados Unidos a quebrar as barreiras raciais, fazendo o esporte evoluir.
The best team never to win the College World Series? It might have been the 1985 Mississippi State Bulldogs, who produced four Major League Baseball All-Stars. Two of them, Bobby Thigpen and Jeff Brantley, became Relievers of the Year, while the other two, Will Clark and Rafael Palmeiro, formed the imposing one-two hitting punch known as "Thunder and Lightning." The brash and bold Clark was born in New Orleans, the son of a pool hustler, while the soft-spoken and shy Palmeiro was a son of Cuban immigrants who did his talking at the plate. As teammates at Mississippi State, they nearly propelled the Bulldogs to a College World Series title. Thirty years later, director Rory Karpf revisits those fabled Bulldogs, tracks the complicated relationship between Clark and Palmeiro, and brings closure to men who should be remembered for what they did, and not for what they didn't do.
For Hank Aaron. For Phil Niekro. For Braves Country. The Atlanta Braves are 2021 World Series champions, proving that it is anyone’s game once the Postseason begins by taking down the Houston Astros in a 6-game Fall Classic. The official World Series from Major League Baseball.
Houston Strong. The first championship for any franchise always delivers a satisfying celebration. But when it happens during the recovery from a natural disaster, it generously serves as a welcome and exhilarating distraction for its fans and city. Fresh on the heels of devastating flooding from Hurricane Harvey, the Houston Astros thrilled fans by winning the 2017 World Series championship.
The five-year-old Florida Marlins combined the wily leadership and manager Jim Leyland with a team built through shrewd draft picks, trades, and talented free agents. They won the National League wild card--then became the first wild card team to reach the World Series by sweeping the Giants and shocking the Braves. The Cleveland Indians were a far different team than the one that battled in the 1995 World Series. This year, nobody expected them to beat the Yankees or the Orioles--but somehow they did. And so, these two underdog warriors slugged it out in the heat and snow of the World Series until they reached that quintessential moment--Game Seven. Even then, it went on--into the 11th inning--the second longest Game Seven in history--before Edgar Renteria sent all of Florida into a state of delirious celebration.
Red Sox Nation rejoiced as its beloved team reached the World Series in dramatic fashion, having just overcome a three-games-to-one deficit in the ALCS by outscoring the Cleveland Indians 30-5 in the final three contests. There they met the sizzling Colorado Rockies -victors in 21 of their last 22 games and just the second team ever to win their first seven in the postseason. But while both teams came into the World Series on fire, only one continued that torrid pace. The Red Sox briskly swept the Rockies aside to capture their second title of the decade and their second straight Fall Classic sweep.

The bad fortune of the Mets was forever changed when pitcher Tom Seaver debuted with New York in 1967. By 1969, even the most cynical New Yorkers believed in the young ace.
