Synopsis: Through the prism of the present, in which the filmmaker's anxieties about a loss are heightened by the impending birth of her first child, LIFE, DEATH & BASEBALL looks back at the unexpected death of the filmmaker's sister, Adrienne, 25 years earlier and at her sister's passion for the New York Yankees.
A series of profiles is used as the structural framework for this exploration, beginning with the filmmaker's oldest brother Jeff, an ardent proponent of family life and baseball, and ending with former Yankee pitcher, Rollie Sheldon. Ultimately, LIFE, DEATH & BASEBALL is a personal journey in which the filmmakers experience of losing her sister and, in a sense, losing her own grounding in the world.
