Your Saturday Baseball Open Thread

By TheNaturalMevs on July 9, 2011

Above is When it Was a Game I part one. If you want to continue watching click here. That’s what a sunny Saturday in the summer time means to me, watching this at my grandparents house and then whatever national game they decided to air.

Usually this awesome documentary–which was originally aired on HBO–would replay on PBS or some cable television station. They would do a marathon of it and run it all morning and afternoon. I loved watching these and I couldn’t believe that this was the same game that I was obsessed with, just a version of it many years before.

It’s still the same great game, albeit frustrating at times. It was the worst loss of the year for the Reds last night in my opinion. Jay Bruce hit his 20th home run of the year. The Angels won in Mike Trout’s debut. Adam Dunn hit a bomb, but he’s still riding highway I-60.

We hope you have a great Saturday. And take our advice, watch When It Was a Game sometime. All of them. You won’t regret it.
