A movie that I would see is the 1869 cincy red stockings from the beginning to when they where defeated through the perspective of harry wright and george wright.

Ted Williams would be the main character of a movie I'd love to see.

Having just completed a book on the man, very few baseball biographies measure up to Jimmy Claxton. A good portion of his career was spent in Roslyn, Washington which has been the location of several TV series (Northern Exposure), and movies. In almost suspended animation the town looks very similar to the way it looked in 1920's.

Now that I see these suggestions I agree Rube Waddell would make a great movie subject. Most people outside of baseball fans have never heard of him and wouldn't believe half of the stuff he did or at least is credited with.

Urban Shocker. In addition to remarkable stats, he was baseball's first true "free agent" ... before tragedy struck.
