They see me trolling, they hating.....
I'm looking for something that would give an uneducated baseball fan a good overall view of the history of the league starting from the beginning to modern times.

The NFL has those Greatest Superbowl Champions documentaries and the NBA had the NBA at 50 documentary that dropped 15 years ago. Baseball doesn't have anything similar to those films?

Loved his docs on jazz & Jack Johnson. Can't wait for the one on Jackie Robinson that he's working on

"Baseball" is the standard by which all others sports documentaries are measured.

There are some individual titles that can compare (Hoop Dreams, some 30 for 30s, etc)...but none are better

*puts it on in the background*

Oh yeah, and it's on Netflix.
