Review of Fastball (2016) by Don S — 10 Sep 2016
Fantastic documentary! The subject matter, and Kevin Costner's narration, just completely had me riveted! From Walter Johnson, to Bob Feller, to Nolan Ryan, the greatest fastball pitchers are on display in this film! I love that my all-time favorite player, Nolan, was given the last segment and that he may have even thrown faster than Aroldis Chapman! And the piece about Steve Dalkowski was super, as I had never heard of him and found his story fascinating.
My only negative comment is that I think that I would have dropped the David Price segment, and included one on Randy Johnson. Other than that, I loved this! And I recommend watching the extended interviews bonus material, if for nothing else than to watch Whitey Herzog flip out a bit!
