Two Players. One Dream.

Trying to make it in the fiercely competitive world of professional baseball can make or break you. Time in the Minors documents the 2006 season of two minor league players on their formidable journey in trying to reach the major leagues.

John (19), a High School All-American from San Diego, California was selected in the first round of the 2005 amateur baseball draft by the Cleveland Indians and offered a one million dollar signing bonus. 2006 will mark Johns first full season in professional baseball. Tony (28), a (1998) 6th-round draft pick out of Omaha, Nebraska is an 8-year veteran of the minor leagues. The 2006 season may be Tonys last shot.

Whats it like trying to make it to the Major Leagues? Follow each player from pre-season and beyond through the ups and downs of a life in professional baseball, and the dream that keeps their hopes alive.

NBCSports.com "Hardball Talk" Reviews "Time In The Minors"...

I got a chance to see a great documentary recently: Time in the Minors, by Tony Okun. While the film has been around for a little while, it became available on DVD just last fall and, either way, its subject matter is timeless and compelling. I loved it, I want to tell you about it and, hopefully, you’ll want to see it....
