Israel Swings for Gold follows the 2018 hit Heading Home: The Tale of Team Israel, about Israel’s Cinderella run at the 2017 World Baseball Classic.</p><p>A Documentary by Seth Kramer, Daniel A. Miller, and Jeremy Newberger<strong> </strong></p><p><strong>I﻿n partnership with the Consulate General of Israel, Jewish National Fund and Project Baseball,  and the American Jewish Committee Los Angeles</strong></p><p><strong>To learn about Project Baseball, </strong><a href="https://my.jnf.org/israel-baseball/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><strong>click here</strong></a></p>
