The Battered Bastards of Baseball (20-Jan-2014)

Directors: Chapman Way; Maclain Way

Keywords: Sports Documentary, Baseball

Sports documentary tells the offbeat tale of minor league baseball's now-defunct Portland Mavericks.

ABSTRACT
The Portland Mavericks existed as a delightfully weird independent participant in minor league baseball's Northwest League from 1973 to 1977, operating on Hollywood connections through team owner Bing Russell and fan-friendly on-field play packed with showmanship and spectacle. The Battered Bastards of Baseball is the Mavericks' story, framing their history as a deserving piece of baseball's colorful canon.
