The Saint of Second Chances, a new documentary now streaming on Netflix, traces Mike Veeck's professional implosion and resurrection. The implosion was caused by Disco Demolition Night, an infamous disaster that Veeck staged in 1979 while serving as promotions director for the Chicago White Sox (a team then owned by his father, Bill Jr.). The resurrection came more than a decade later, when Veeck entered the world of Minor League Baseball and made a name for himself via his innovative and often absurd promotions.
