Coinciding with the 2011 World Series, A&E Home Entertainment and Major League Baseball have assembled an impressive presentation of 10 exceptional and iconic games on DVD – BASEBALL’S GREATEST GAMES that include the clutch performances of players like Carlton Fisk, Bill Mazeroski and Derek Jeter.
As the author of a book about sports and lists, I know that there is no denying that America has a fascination with lists. Who is the best? What is your favorite? Lists have become a part of the fabric of the sporting world and the filmmakers here have created what they feel to be the very best, those that have stood the test of time because of history-changing impact, dramatic brilliance, or heroic exploits.
A bonus disc featuring additional footage and interviews from all 10 games and an alternative audio track featuring local radio play-by-play are part of the set.
