Production has already started on the Nelson George-directed documentary on the Major League Baseball, San Francisco Giants and sports icon. “Some say that throughout my life I have inspired others, but the truth is that so many have done this for me,” Mays told Deadline today. “My teammates, my friends, and of course the fans mean so much to me. And so I hope this documentary can give back to all of them something enjoyable and inspiring in return.”
