For more Double Talk with Hannah and Cailin Loesch, We catch up with director Sam Pollard, executive producer Nina Dobrev, and retired baseball player/sports commentator Harold Reynolds at the Tribeca 2023 premiere of the documentary #TheLeague. Baseball is known as America’s pastime, but for many years, non-white people were socially and professionally excluded. Director Sam Pollard and executive producer Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson shed light on that history with The League, revealing how the dynamic style of Black baseball players came to define the way the game is played today. With the eye of a historian, Pollard delves into how Black professionals formed Negro League baseball, building a unique sporting culture and community of their own.
