The Sandlot was one of my favorite films growing up – I watched it over and over and over so many times. In the summer of 1962, a new kid in town is taken under the wing of a young baseball prodigy and his rowdy team, resulting in many adventures. It’s not only the perfect slice of suburban Americana, with all the usual happenings, it’s a great baseball movie about a group of kids who – even if they can’t really play all that well – build their friendships around the game anyway. The Sandlot stars Tom Guiry, Mike Vitar, Art LaFleur, Patrick Renna (also seen in You Gotta Believe), Chauncey Leopardi, Marty York, Brandon Adams, and many others.

We also posted a fantastic baseball movie montage video recently, and there’s a whole new book about them called Baseball: The Movie that we recommend as well (even though its author Noah Gittell isn’t a big fan of The Sandlot – oh well).
