John Fitzgerald, who produced and directed the Irish Baseball Movie, has created a new website for International Baseball fans, called Planet Hardball. He is looking for players, coaches and league officials to do podcast interviews.
Hello,
.
My name is John Fitzgerald. I am an independent TV/film producer – most of my projects have focused on independent and amateur baseball (see below for details). Beginning in January 2010, I will be creating a new website for independent, amateur and international baseball fans, called “Planet Hardball.” The purpose of “Planet Hardball” is to give fans a place where they can find the latest news, podcast interviews, photos and links to baseball teams and leagues that interest them.
.
I will be interviewing players, coaches and league officials for the Planet Hardball podcast. If you or someone you know would like to be interviewed, please contact me at playingforpeanuts@gmail.com.
.
The interview will only take 15 minutes and it would focus on league history, current events in the league and the challenges involved with running the league.
.
The interview would be cross-posted on PlanetHardball.com and my mailing list of several thousand baseball fans who have seen my documentary and TV shows. I hope it will provide some extra publicity for the league and the players involved.
.
Most importantly, we can create a link so that interested fans can make a tax-deductible online donation to the league.
