Anyone else see this?

Just saw this documentary last night. I gotta say that it should be bundled with the movie Sugar, about the Dominican Prospect who gets off the island and then had to deal with life in the US.

The Documentary showed alot of back story stuff that you wouldn't normally see. It shows what kids go through trying to get signed. There was a story about the kid with a iffy birth certificate who gets bounced from the Red Sox complex, the young kid who wants to be the next David Ortiz and some other trials and tribulations.

Overall, it gave better a little better insight to how the Dominican gold mine works to pump out kids for MLB. It also had appearances by David Ortiz, who gives insight on what it's like trying to get signed and what it's like coming back as a star. Vlad Guerrero also makes an appearance and gives insight on playing in the Dominican. Carlos Gomez also makes an appearance.
