The Turnaround

What an inspirational short story!

One man's life revolves around his beloved Phillis baseball team. When the new superstar goes through a really low period on the pitch, rather than jump on the bandwagon of booing and getting on his back,he inspires his city to cheer and make him feel like the superstar he is.

He reflects on his own demons and uses that to help inspire his team and his city. You cannot help but smile and will him and the player on.

As he tells the camera it's"nice to be nice"and isn't that what everybody would like?

When the superstar says thank you at the beginning of the new season you know how much it meant to him too.

7.6 stars.

I felt really warm and fuzzy watching this. Turner had a really rough start in 2023 season. I remember watching a game when they started giving him standing ovations, because me and my dad watch the Phils a lot and we were like, "wow, the Philly crowd is giving him a standing o, nobody ever does that in Philly. It's almost an unwritten rule for like 60 years or so, who knows, but those fans are the harshest in b-ball, but maybe not so much as they used to be and this time it helped to be nice. Just got done watching the Phillies choke out this season, so they are in the usual form. They have the worst history for championships compared to length of time the team has been around.

Proud of the Captain, been a fan of his on YouTube for a while now and it's really cool to see him reaching new heights. This is how the true Philly fans act and support their teams, 4 for 4 baby. As Philadelphia fans we get a bad stigma that we are all trash and low class people that just wanna fight and drink beer. The Philadelphia sports fan has evolved, we've seen our dads, friends and elders act like that and we decided we aren't gonna be those type of fans anymore. We just love our teams and are very passionate, we don't want to fight opponents or fans, we just want to win and have a good time like the rest of yous! Let this be a good starting point for a change of views of Philadelphia fans from the rest of the nation. Good work Cap and Go Phil's, Flyers, Sixers, and Birds!

Really made me think and I always smile When I see the Philly captain on Adam the Woos videos. What a great guy! He truly is inspirational and shows love in a way we all need to see and do. Thank you Philly Captain for your smile and happiness you bring to others. This is a great doc that is short but carried a great message we all need to hear. Even if you aren't a baseball fan you will like the message and enjoy it and get someone out of it for sure. I know I did.

I am a baseball fan but admit not a Philly fan but a fan of great baseball and the Phillies have that for sure. Check this out !!

This is a brief documentary, which I like, about people supporting each other. This is a beautiful documentary with great music. It proves what love can do for a person. Not about baseball as much as it is a heartwarming story about people helping people, showing up for one another. Stewiethe one eyed chihuahua rocks ! Some of the film is from Jon's actual YouTube films, which is well done. Really, watch this flick and feel better about the world. Honestly, this film could have been longer , with more expansion on Jon's YouTube account and how he decided to make the appeal. The photography and music is beautiful. This is a film with many layers. Watch it more than once.
