NORTH OLMSTED, Ohio – With opening day only a week away, everyone is eager for the warm days ahead filled with the crack of the bat, the sound of the vendors yelling in the stands and the feel only opening day can bring. However as we all know in Northeast, Ohio opening day doesn’t always mean warm weather.
So as Cleveland fans often do, we are forced to turn to indoor activities as we await the weather to finally break. In this case, with baseball on everyone’s minds there is no better indoor activity to get ready for opening day then sitting back and watching one of the several baseball movies that have warmed their way into Americans hearts.
Here I bring you my list of the top ten baseball movies of all time. As disagreements of this list are always inevitable, don’t be shy to tell us how you disagree or agree. Sit back, crack open a cold one and put your favorite toppings on the hot dog as you feast on this list!

There is a movie that they used to run every April on Channel 43 called “It Happens Every Spring.” It was made in 1949, and it stars Ray Milland as a nerdy chemistry professor who is obsessed with baseball, and he accidentally discovers a chemical compound that makes any object the compound touches repel wood. So he becomes a pitcher, loads up the ball with the compound on every pitch, and no one can get a hit off of him, and he becomes a sensation.
It’s a fun movie with not-bad-for-1949 special effects, and is quite enjoyable if you don’t think about the plot gaps too hard. That movie belongs on this list.
