Van, aki képtelen lemondani a győzelemről. Billy Beane (Brad Pitt) fiatal korában azt hitte, a baseball szupersztárja lesz, ám a pályán nem tudott felnőni az elvárásokhoz. Nem fordult el a sporttól, most az oaklandi csapatot vezeti - ám kevés pénzből gazdálkodik, és a tehetséges játékosait mind elszipkázzák a többet ajánló, nagyobb egyesületek. Még szerencse, hogy nem a pályán dől el minden. Billy összeismerkedik egy fiatal matematikussal (Jonah Hill), akinek van egy vad elmélete: hatalmas adatbázisa és néhány statisztikai program segítségével meg tudja jósolni, kik azok a játékosok, akik nem kellenek senkinek, olcsók, mégis sikert hozhatnak. A furcsa páros belevág a kockázatos kalandba. Olyanokat szerződtetnek, akikről mindenki lemondott, akik már maguk sem hisznek a győzelemben. A közönség nevet, a csapat vezetői lázadnak, a játékosok nem hiszik el, hogy mi történik velük. Valami azonban megváltozik a pályán, és az már baseball történelem.

Ben elmúlt harminc, jó a humora, rendes állása és kedves mosolya van. Lindsey barátnői szerint azonban túl tökéletes ahhoz, hogy igaz lehessen. Ám a lány nagyon vágyik már a boldogságra. Kezdetben úgy tűnik, neki volt igaza. De egyik nap belenéz barátja szekrényébe, és szörnyű titokra derül fény: Ben fanatikus baseball-drukker! A hétköznapok azt bizonyítják, nem lehet olyan férfival élni, aki egy jó átadást többre becsül a családi ajándékátadásnál, akinek nincs zakója, de sportmezektől dagad a gardróbja, és csak este, a híradóból tudja meg, hogy barátnőjét, aki mellette ült a stadionban, meccs közben elvitték a mentők.

1961 nyara, a baseball aranykora. Mickey és Roger egyszerre barátok és riválisok. Teljesen alulról érkezett az egyik, jó családból származik a másik: mindketten másként élik meg a népszerűséget. Abban az évben emelték a meccsek számát, de a legendás rekordot, az egy meccsen elért pontok számát csak a régi feltételekkel veszik számba. Mindketten a rekord megdöntésére törekednek, szorít az idő. Rogert cikizi a sportújságírók hada, elbagatellizálják tehetségét. Egy ideje inkább Mickey az ügyeletes kedvenc.

When the night of October 16, 2004 came to a merciful end, the Curse of the Bambino was alive and well. The vaunted Yankee lineup, led by A-Rod, Jeter, and Sheffield, had just extended their ALCS lead to three games to none, pounding out 19 runs against their hated rivals. The next night, in Game 4, the Yankees took a 4-3 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning, then turned the game over to Mariano Rivera, the best relief pitcher in postseason history, to secure yet another trip to the World Series. But after a walk and a hard-fought stolen base, the cold October winds of change began to blow. Over four consecutive days and nights, this unlikely group of Red Sox miraculously won four straight games to overcome the inevitability of their destiny. Major League Baseball Productions will produce a film in "real-time" that takes an in-depth look at the 96 hours that brought salvation to Red Sox Nation and made baseball history in the process.

Major League Baseball has been transformed by the influx of Cuban players such as Aroldis Chapman, Yasiel Puig and Jose Abreu. But a special debt of gratitude is owed to two half-brothers, whose courage two decades ago paved the way for their stardom. "Brothers in Exile" tells the incredible story of Livan and Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez, who risked their lives to get off the island.

On Oct. 17, 1989, at 5:04 p.m. PT, soon after Al Michaels and Tim McCarver started the ABC telecast for Game 3 of the World Series between the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland Athletics, the ground began to shake beneath Candlestick Park. Even before that moment, this had promised to be a memorable matchup: the first in 33 years between teams from the same metropolitan area, a battle featuring larger-than-life characters and equally colorful fan bases. But after the 6.9 Loma Prieta earthquake rolled through, bringing death and destruction, the Bay Area pulled together, and baseball took a backseat.

In Fernando Nation, Mexican-born and Los Angeles-raised director Cruz Angeles traces the history of a community that was torn apart when Dodger Stadium was built in Chavez Ravine and then revitalized by one of the most captivating pitching phenoms baseball has ever seen. Nicknamed “El Toro” by his fans, Fernando Valenzuela ignited a fire that spread from LA to New York—and beyond. He vaulted himself onto the prime time stage and proved with his signature look to the heavens and killer screwball that the American dream was not reserved for those born on U.S. soil. In this layered look at the myth and the man, Cruz Angeles recalls the euphoria around Fernando’s arrival and probes a phenomenon that transcended baseball for many Mexican-Americans. Fernando Valenzuela himself opens up to share his perspective on this very special time. Even 20 years later, “Fernandomania” lives.

Love them or hate them, the Yankees remain the most glorified team in American sports history. Led by the Babe, the Iron Horse, the Yankee Clipper and the Mick, they dominated baseball for more than four decades before the legendary franchise sagged under the ownership of CBS. Then in 1973, a 42-year-old shipbuilder named George Steinbrenner, a man now as iconic to his team as the pinstripes on its uniforms, headed a group that purchased the Yankees, and turned that investment into a billion-dollar business. Since 1923, the ‘House that Ruth Built’ has been the epicenter of the baseball world, inspiring generations of fans to maintain loyalties through good times and bad. But with a deteriorating facility and an eye towards 21st century style revenues, Steinbrenner was inspired to build an impressive new stadium. While the Yankees kept their Bronx address at 161st and River Avenue, the new ballpark marked the end of one grand era with the hope of launching another.

Bensőséges hangulatú, megindító dokumentumfilm a New York Yankees dobójátékosának, ifjabb Cartsen Charles Sabathiának, becenevén CC-nek a történetéről, amihez felhasználták a Yankeesnél játszott utolsó, 2019-es szezonjáról készült, kulisszák mögötti felvételeket is. Sabathia saját szavaival meséli el történetét, kezdve a kaliforniai Vallejóval, ahol később a sportág egyik kiemelkedő dobójátékosává váló fiú bontogatta a szárnyait, vagyis nagymamája udvarán grapefruit gyümölcsöket dobálgatott. Mivel Sabathia utolsó szezonjának csúcs- és mélypontjait filmre vették, a sportoló ezek kapcsán tekint vissza örökségére és az őt formáló komoly kihívásokra, köztük a függőséggel vívott hosszú csatájára, amely 2015-ben tetőzött, amikor már a Yankees színeiben lépett pályára.
