During the offseason, MLB Network regularly airs “Baseball,” and the documentary has gotten new life with the re-airs.
Now Burns previewing his new “Vietnam War” doc told the Television Critics Association on Sunday, he wants to add an “Eleventh Inning” that would tell the story of the 2016 Chicago Cubs World Series victory. Burns said “I’m sort of obligated.”
He said last year he would add another hour if the Cubs won the World Series and now that’s it happened, Burns said he’s ready to start.
Burns added that he and collaborator Lynn Novick “have to go and talk and figure out how to go back to it.”
So it appears that Cubs fans will have another thing to celebrate, a new chapter added to “Baseball,” and another way of reliving a magical 2016.
There’s no word as to when the “Eleventh Inning” would begin production or would air, but knowing how much care Burns takes to produce his documentaries, it probably won’t be this year. However, Cubs fans can anticipate adding another DVD to their 2016 Championship memorabilia collection.
