Is "For Love of the Game" Actually Good? with The Pandemic Baseball Book Club

Author Brad Balukjian loves "For Love of the Game." His fellow authors in The Pandemic Baseball Book Club, Anika Orrock and Jason Turbow, do not.  All three join Big Screen Sports to debate the film's merits, or lack thereof. We talk Vin Scully, Costner in his underwear sniffing perfume, and the film's extremely questionable romantic subplot.Check out the book club at pbbclub.com and the author's books:The Incredible Women of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League by Anika Orrock.The Wax Pack by Brad BalukjianThe Bled Blue by Jason TurbowBig Screen Sports is brought to you by Indeed and BetOnline.ag.
