"Player To Be Named Later" documentary - Marco Scutaro
Has anyone ever seen the documentary following the Indianapolis Indians, the Milwaukee Brewers AAA club during the 2001 season? Its a great find, since I am located in the Milwaukee area it was on tonight, caught it by just flipping around channels and it was on Milwaukee Public Television(rare to find anything of interest on there ; ). It features/follows the paths of 5 players, Micah Franklin, Kyle Peterson(former 1st round pick), Brad Tyler, Mike Levrault(?) and of course Marco Scutaro. Levrault is a pitcher who was with the Sacramento River Cats for 2002, according to the follow up on the documentary.
Great story with Scutaro and his wife. He was the player named later in the Richie Sexson to Milwaukee trade and named MVP of the Indians in 2001, but not called up by the Brewers. Players are mic-ed during games and it follows them around in regular life during the season. Has Scutaro mic-ed during the MVP presentation award at the last home game and even has the manager at the time of the Indians calling him into the office to tell him hes wasn't called up...poor Marco tears up a bit which is understandable given hes the teams MVP.
Anyways, great find for a true baseball fan if you can find it somewhere. I never heard of the documentary but its interesting, especially if you are an A's/Scutaro fan or Brewers fan(which I am both) :).
