Bull Durham

1988 · 108 min

A laid-back, witty romance that ambles through minor-league baseball with charm, sharp banter, and a soft heart.

Tagline
Romance is a lot like baseball. It's not whether you win or lose. It's how you play the game.
Overview
Veteran catcher Crash Davis is brought to the minor league Durham Bulls to help their up and coming pitching prospect, "Nuke" Laloosh. Their relationship gets off to a rocky start and is further complicated when baseball groupie Annie Savoy sets her sights on the two men.
