Free Documentary of the Week: 'The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg'

Journey back to baseball's glory days and discover the legend of "Hammerin' Hank" Greenberg.

During the first half of the 20th Century, professional baseball was a thriving sport full of living legends beloved by fans. But as team loyalty died and gastronomical contracts steadily inflated, these heroes slowly faded away into memories of a time "when it was a game."

Director Aviva Kempner documents the story of one of these legends, the first Jewish professional sports superstar, in 'The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg.' "Hammerin' Hank" is an Major League Baseball Hall of Famer and two-time MVP who remains largely unheralded for his amazing accomplishments inside and out of the ballpark.

The winner of 12 awards from various critics' circles and film festivals, 'The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg' is an excellent documentary that spotlights an athlete who defined baseball's glory days. Watch the film in full, or snag it onto your own site, from SnagFilms.com.
