Pitching Man: Satchel Paige Defying Time | FULL MOVIE | Satchel Paige Baseball Documentary

Pitching Man celebrates the life of baseball’s most enduring legend; Satchel Paige was the single most important player in the old Negro Baseball Leagues in an era when baseball was segregated. He was an extraordinary athlete and a genuine original who played the game for forty years on makeshift rural sandlots and in major league ballparks against the best in the game. In 1948 he triumphed in the major leagues as a 42-year old rookie and solidified his position as an American hero and confirmed his status as one of the greats of the game. Paige became the first Negro Leaguer to win induction into baseball’s Hall of Fame. His is a compelling story that illustrates much about the times and the plight of Black Americans. This documentary remembers a true baseball immortal and paints a vivid portrait of American Society in transition.

When I was a little kid learning to love baseball, I'd heard about Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and listening to Dizzy Dean say Satchell's the greatest pitcher he'd ever saw

[@Loydstardeli2017]

It would have ❤ for satchal paige pitch against jimmy foxx,& lou gehrig& mel oott& bill dickey& stan musial&bill dickey& mockey cochrane& charlie gehringer etc etc , satchel paige had illegal pitches too like balk pitches:, glover cleveland alexander was a legendary pitcher from that era too

[@sbn1124]

Ok no c​@@Loydstardeli2017😮kg😊I 😮😮😅

[@josephboyce4522]

My Dad told me about Satchel Paige when I was 6 years old. He was a huge fan of the man, as well as the pitcher.

[@mdarrenu]

I learned about him when I was like 8 back in the early 1970s. Mythical hero.

[@danacoleman4007]

wow! what a story! I learned an awful lot that I didn't already know. thank you for posting!

[@michaeltice4281]

When I was about 14, 1970? I bought his book"Maybe I'll pitch forever" . Fun read.

[@RoyHaynes-tz3nd]

Wetp in fact. He did pitch in forever in his time one of a kind😅😅😅😅

[@kiasax2]

Satchel Page was an incredible hero. He accomplished so much and I heard stories about him from my Cherokee grandfather. We Cherokees rooted for those of other minorities. He was certainly a MAN that I admired from boyhood on. Great dovumentary, thank you very much for uploading this wonderful piece about a legend.👍🪶🪶🤙

[@CargoFilmReleasing]

Thanks for sharing, and glad you enjoyed the film!

[@kvonzwild8979]

Not only his "stuff" out on the mound but his durability over so many years and so many games with that kind of stuff is amazing.

[@gordianturkey6679]

So great to be able to see him on video...

[@SkippGold]

Much love and much respect for a man with a gift. a talent and dignity to show the world ❤😊

[@waynewells3297]

Satchel Paige was an American original. Amazing!

[@vonjackson2421]

That's why I wear his Monarch's jersey... Thanks for the documentary. 🦾⚾️

[@matttirado7661]

I got his tee shirt:)

[@Erin-jt9di]

Thank you for these wonderful bios. Clarity..no music and very engaging

[@johnharris3455]

What a man. 😊

[@georgeluckette8004]

Greetings: God Blessed Satchel Paige, and Satchel blessed baseball. Peace

[@CargoFilmReleasing]

Amen to that!

[@michaell8002]

Satchel is a great figure in American history. Nothing like him.

[@MicahSeymour]

Awesome doc! Thanks!

[@CargoFilmReleasing]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@michaelterry4394]

I remember when i was 18 sitting in my fathers car in 1965 Satch pitched 3 inn against the Boston Red Sox he was 59 i was rooting like a madman. Only Carl YASTREMSKI GOT A hit off him .

[@VincentPope-hy3qb]

My father 'Dave Pope " was w/the Cleveland Indians in 1954 as they won 110 games.

[@chinahepcat]

Everyone should see Bingo Long and His Traveling All Stars...it's loosely based on Satchel and Josh Gibson (best baseball film ever imo) and other real players. Billy Dee Williams narrating this vid is no coincidence.

[@RVRayRay]

Satchel Paige and his barnstorming team was the original “And 1” streetball tour.

[@MountainStreamLives]

Mix Maddux with Feller and you’ve got Paige. Imagine having Pedro for 40 years. That’s who he was.

[@markv6228]

greatest running gag was how old was Satchel really was. he was great a pure honest person who wanted to change the world the same as Jackie Robinson touching his plaque and name just gave me chills knowing how great he was his wit was great made so great for the game

[@lutherp.smithjr.5842]

Won't be another like him

[@sarahwatts7152]

Great tenacity!

[@rentslave]

He wasn't the first black pitcher to PLAY in the World Series. The Dodgers' Dan Bankhead was used as a pinch runner by Burt Shotton.

[@michaeldeangelo4374]

He was one of the best

[@markv6228]

he also got to play with Josh Gibson which is awesome too also got chills touching josh's plaque and name made tear up because I know how bad he wanted to follow Sach to MLB

[@Loydstardeli2017]

Josh gibson was a drinker too jackie robinson was young baseball player hittetthey should had an all star games negro league all star again major league baseball all star like a series

[@janconner2087]

Unfortunately, Josh Gibson died in 1947. Satchel Paige was signed by the Cleveland Indians in 1948

[@johnlewis7710]

Good documentary ! A technical note - Branch Rickey was an owner of the Dodgers but team president and general manager.

[@kevin-g1w]

My father actually pitched against Paige in an exhibition game. My father lost 3-2. :(

[@bobbrown8361]

Born July 7th 1906

[@fredmiller1358]

" Satchel Paige could pitch a porkchop past a wolf"...Movie quote. Forget which Movie though.

[@danacoleman4007]

Casablanca

[@WayCoolJr27]

I was in India in a lower middle class home 10 years ago. Guess what, they didn't know what their birthday either. Birthdays can be a cultural thing. Moreover, many births were at home and not in a hospital. If you don't think poor whites didn't experience some of the same issues, you are missing part of history.

[@eribric5556]

My grandmother owned a house next door to S.P.

[@CargoFilmReleasing]

Near where they are building a museum?

[@aarondigby5054]

@39:30 listen to Tommy LaSorda now he knows baseball, arguably the greatest coach of his era

[@aarondigby5054]

@13:00 Babe Ruth knocked a dinger off Paige, wow.

[@eribric5556]

Babe Ruth had a stick

[@peteq4prn]

well nothing to do with Satchel, but what is that red antenna thing in the background of the one dudes interview pieces?? lol

[@algiudice7465]

time traveler.... lol

[@Areyoutalkingtome-q1s]

Shame on me and shame on the baseball oligarchy. I had no idea about Paige's time with St. Louis and (AAA) Miami. Im a 40 year baseball fan and its not even reported that he pitched in 1949 for Cleveland.

[@TheCdecisneros]

When asked about JIm Katt's career Satchel said Jim only pitched 6 month years.

[@dustyrustymusty3577]

Joe Biden hit 3 homeruns off of Satchel in the same game. As if that wasn't enough Biden went back to the cotton field and worked a 16 hour day.

[@tomree1438]

Take the nonsense somewhere else..

[@chinahepcat]

LOL

[@NathanMasso-u7m]

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha .Your a Clown . Mate

[@garymayfield5995]

[@86-08]

[@stanthurman9008]

Did they ever get close to his age ?

[@rentslave]

Satchel was a pup compared to Jamie Moyer.

[@j.s.friedman9649]

Wrong, anyone with experience can pitch when their old, their just prejudice of old people

[@algiudice7465]

"We played against dizzy dean and his bro in Cleveland for a sellout crowd".... I'm sorry and NEVER fell for, or do this... but WHO "The F#@k", is being quoted on these spoke words?? Lord, I feel like an old man for saying this, but a majority of the past TWO generations does not take ANY accountability of their English, grammar, punctuation and/or respect of their/our language.... Which in some aspect brought us all to speak in a more civilized manner toward each other....in an ADDED opportunity to bring us together as a common society for good some day....
