Biggs and Aaron pick up 1989's Major League to continue an exploration of their "formative sports films."There's a red moon rising, on the Cuyahoga River," and it's because the water is on fire. But don't worry, it's not a crisis, it's an accomplishment! This movie has it all: some of the most iconic baseball moments on screen coupled with r*pe culture, anti-blackness, cultural genocide by way of Indigenous caricature, and, of course, the sounds of Randy Newman helping it all feel amazing.
