Who Killed the Montreal Expos? trailer unveiled

About three weeks ago, we learned that the documentary Who Killed the Montreal Expos? will be available on Netflix from October 21.

The broadcaster introduced its product with a press release.

For 35 years, the Expos were more than just a baseball club; they were the first MLB team to establish itself in Canada, and became part of the heart of Montreal, a symbol of pride and identity for Québécois. Who Killed the Montreal Expos? investigates the behind-the-scenes controversies, devastating setbacks and critical missteps that led to the shocking loss of one of the sport's most beloved franchises.

And now the trailer has been unveiled, with the following words from Expos legend Pedro Martinez as a curtain raiser.

As good as we are at hockey, Montreal is a baseball town.

The trailer then shows the support the Expos have received from fans throughout their history.

Then, we dive more seriously into the agony of the Montreal team when the trailer alludes to how the city lost its team, mentioning skyrocketing salaries and a lack of investment on the part of the team.

The roles played by Claude Brochu, Jeffrey Loria and other team executives before the team fled Montreal are also discussed.

In addition to Martinez, Who Killed the Montreal Expos? features another great Expos player, Vladimir Guerrero Sr. as well as former manager Felipe Alou, fans, former journalists and team employees.

Featuring rare archival footage and flashbacks to the greatest moments in Expos history, the documentary should take fans through the full gamut of emotions.
