ESPN just came out with it’s “Travel Ten” top must see baseball events of the summer.  At #1 is Opening Day of The Cape Cod Baseball League and at #4 is the Midnight Sun Game in Fairbanks, AK.   The Midnight Sun Game is a big part of our latest documentary Touching the Game, Alaska. As for the Cape Cod Baseball League, we spent a whole summer there in our 2004 release Touching the Game, The Story of the Cape Cod Baseball League. If you can’t make it to either event, our DVDs will bring them right into your home.  Enjoy!

The San Antonio Express-News has a new article and update on former Anchorage Glacier Pilot Todd Sebek, one of the players we focused on in Touching the Game, Alaska.

We interviewed many Alaska Baseball League players in our time spent producing Touching the Game, Alaska. Many appear in the film talking about their experiences in the Frontier State.  But where are they playing baseball today? Most of them were selected in the MLB draft and are now playing professionally in the minors, working their way up to what could be a dream come true, playing in the Major Leagues.  Here is a list of some of the guys in the film and where they are now.

And we have not forgotten  the players we followed in the Cape Cod Baseball League for the summer of 2003. Here is a list of the players from Touching the Game, The Story of the Cape Cod Baseball League. Many are on the verge of making it to the Majors.  Special congrats to Tommy Manzella, the new starting shortstop for the Houston Astros!
