The irony of the push to speed up the game of baseball - the amount of time between pitches, between commercial breaks, between anything that might actually appeal to the iGeneration - is that speed has always been at the heart of the game.

I've seen lots of baseball clips but there are clips in this film I've never seen, including some fine clips of the legendary Walter Johnson. But there's a lot more to it than that.This is a film that no baseball fan should miss.

As the boys of summer prepare to take the field again, Fastball is a briskly paced, welcome warm-up, beer and peanuts not included.
