4 – A League of Their Own. – Has Tom Hanks ever done a bad movie? If so, it surely wasn’t this one as he leads an all star cast including Geena Davis, Madonna, Lori Penny, Rosie O’Donnell and several others as this 1988 film revisits the days of World War Two where many of the MLB players left for war, leaving the opening for Womens baseball to take off. Watching this you can’t help but cheer for the Rockford Peaches as they take on the Racine Belles in the “World Series”. Women’s baseball has never been so much fun before or after!

There is a movie that they used to run every April on Channel 43 called “It Happens Every Spring.” It was made in 1949, and it stars Ray Milland as a nerdy chemistry professor who is obsessed with baseball, and he accidentally discovers a chemical compound that makes any object the compound touches repel wood. So he becomes a pitcher, loads up the ball with the compound on every pitch, and no one can get a hit off of him, and he becomes a sensation.
It’s a fun movie with not-bad-for-1949 special effects, and is quite enjoyable if you don’t think about the plot gaps too hard. That movie belongs on this list.
