This movie is based on a true story about the legendary baseball pitcher Grover Cleveland Alexander. The film deals sensitively with Alexander's rise, fall and celebrated comeback at the 1926 World Series as he lead the St. Louis Cardinals to victory over the New York Yankees. The movie tones down his alcoholism and says nothing about his epilepsy - no matter, moviegoers still gave it an enthusiastic and understandable thumbs up!
