Episode 52: Eephus / Best Baseball Movies

What’s the best baseball movie of all time? It might be new, but Carson Lund’s EEPHUS belongs in the conversation. Anders and Aren dig into the independent baseball drama and explore the film’s approach to time, use of character actors, and uniquely cinematic exploration of baseball and the end of things. Afterwards, the Brothers discuss some of the best baseball movies of all time, including BULL DURHAM, FIELD OF DREAMS, and A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN.
