Watch List: Play Ball!

As Yogi Berra famously said, "Love is the most important thing in the world, but baseball is pretty good, too." And if you're like us here at Hot Docs, you love that the start of summer means the start of baseball season. Dust off your gloves, throw some hot dogs on the BBQ, and then come down to the Cinema for a cold one to enjoy with this selection of beloved baseball classics, inspired by the wise and talented Yogi Berra as featured in It Ain't Over. There are no fouls on this list; only home runs.
