Synopsis
Q&A with director Gaspar Gonzalez and MLB legend Dave Magadan
Was the 1983 College World Series the most epic, ever? Seasoned ESPN documentarians Gaspar Gonzalez and Castor Fernandez take us back to a true clash of the titans, in a star-studded series that boasted future major leaguers Roger Clemens, Calvin Schiraldi, Barry Larkin, Barry Bonds, and David Magadan. The Texas Longhorns, favored to win it all, were powered by the pitching of Clemens and Schiraldi. But they were up against the Alabama Crimson Tide, a freewheeling, free-swinging band of overachievers led by Magadan, college baseball’s best hitter. Could the Tide take Texas? For some of baseball’s biggest names, this was the time of their lives.
