The Daily Beast

"The Saint of Second Chances is a testament to prioritizing goofy, compassionate family entertainment over winning and profit, as so many associated with the Saints readily attest."

The Saint Of Second Chances is a fun film about a fun figure in the history of baseball, and how Mike Veeck鈥檚 own second chances paralleled the ones he gave others on the teams he owned.

What an incredibly endearing story of the beautiful of sport and the fun you can have along the way. Totally hilarious and heartwarming. If you don't like it you ought to consider a physiological test, because something is seriously wrong

I loved this documentary. I watched it on a plane and cried about 1/3 of the film. It was just beautiful and moving (disclaimer: I love baseball, so the game itself brings out emotions in me).
