DVD Reviews of Touching The Game, The Story of The Cape Cod Baseball League
DVD Review: Touching the Game touches all the bases
Summary: 5 Stars
I grew up summers on the Cape and remember seeing guys like Will Clark and Jeff Reardon playing down there. The Cape League was pretty big back then, but has climbed to new levels today, and Touching The Game gets it right. I loved the human interest stories from the summer of 2003, and look forward to seeing if any of these players make it to the Major Leagues. And the stories from such baseball luminaries as Nomar Garciaparra, Todd Helton, Frank Thomas, Buck Showalter and Jeff Bagwell are classic! But the film is more than just baseball, it accurately portrays what summer is like on Cape Cod, especially for the kids. If you are familiar with the Cape Cod Baseball League this film will be a terrific depiction of what you remember. If you just love baseball, and want to learn more about this great league, Touching The Game covers all the bases.
