We are continuing to build up a decent collection of book reviews here at BaseballGB, but I’ve been asked on a number of occasions whether we will start reviewing other products as well, such as baseball-related computer games or films. My response has always been ’sounds like a good idea, yet I’m not the man to do it’. While I’ve always loved reading books, computer games and films have never really captured my imagination, so I don’t think I would be able to add much to the conversation by reviewing them.
Thankfully, Thomas has decided to take up the challenge of providing a series of baseball film reviews at his Checked Swing blog. Strange as it may seem, films like Field of Dreams and A League of Their Own can be a great way to introduce cynical Brits to the sport, so creating a collection of reviews from a British perspective sounds like an excellent idea. Thomas has got a number of films on his list to review, but he’s seeking further recommendations so do pass any on at his blog and check out his reviews when they are published.
