Major League, it shows the game from both the fan's eye and a player's eye. Also it's chock-full of comedy.

A number of her credits are nameless characters like "Waitress" or "Reporter", there is "Inmate # 1" which was a credit for the tv series "Dynasty", as well as "Nazi B-t-h"" for the 1978 film "The Lucifer Complex." I tracked down her picture from that last flick. She was 51 when this was made. Not bad for 51.
Thank you so much for that! I am saddened now. A League of their Own came out during a really good time in my life, and it brings back great memories. RIP, Ms. Cartwright.

I love the home run music. I believe the Rangers still use this for their home runs, despite their history of PED users.

Has to be Major League. I'll watch it whenever it is on, even when its regular TV with commercials. I still get hyped during the last sequence when Willie Mays Hays steals home.
