horizontal line

John Leguizamo narrates this informative, interesting, "behind-the-scenes," 81-minute, 2011 documentary, which is reminiscent of the film "Sugar," that chronicles the rigorous regime and testing, including DNA, blood, and bone scans, that the Major League Baseball inflicted on 16-year-old Jean Carlos Batista and 15-year-old Miguel Angel Sanó as they tried out for various American baseball teams in an attempt to sign for contracts worth up to $5 million and consists of commentary and interviews with trainers Astin Jacobo and Vasilio "Moreno" Tejeda, Minnesota Twins scout director Fred Guerrero, Pittsburgh Pirates Director of Latin American Scouting Rene Gayo, agent Rob Plummer, Pittsburgh Pirates scout Ellis Peña, lawyer Selman Francisco, and Dominican Republic Baseball Commissioner Parfirio Vera.
