Trial Royale: Best Baseball Movie, Round 2—Minor Leagues

This week, Dave, Neil, and Joanna are joined by Ben Lindbergh to continue their Baseball Trial Royale! Now it’s time for the Minor League division!

They start by discussing why baseball movies work so well (6:11). Then, they play a little trivia game (16:39), and go through some pretrial awards and dismissals (38:46). Finally, they reveal the movies that will be represented in the second-round poll and debate which one should move on to the final round (56:25).

Now it’s up to you to decide! What is the best Minor League baseball movie? You can vote for the winner at ⁠⁠⁠⁠TheRinger.com⁠⁠⁠⁠, on The Ringer’s X feed, and in the Spotify app, where you’ll find Trial by Content. The winner will be announced on the next episode!

You can send your picks for the next topic and a few sentences to support your pick to ⁠⁠TrialByContent@gmail.com⁠⁠. You can also submit suggestions for future Trial by Content topics. Is there a great pop culture debate that you’d like us to settle? Send it on over!
