ESPN’s sports newsmagazine E:60 had two of its documentaries featured at the National Baseball Hall of Fame 2015 Film Festival in Cooperstown, N.Y. this weekend.

The features showcased this year were “Morganna: The Kissing Bandit,” produced by Martin Khodabakhshian, and a one-hour comprehensive profile, “Matt Harvey: The Dark Knight Rises,” produced by coordinating producer Ben Houser.

“Having our content shown in the National Baseball Hall of Fame is a testament to the hard work, creativity and storytelling of the people who work so diligently on E:60,” Houser said.

This is the second consecutive year that E:60 has had documentaries featured at the film festival.

Khodabakhshian produced and directed a one-hour film, PERFECT, about the 23 perfect games pitched in Major League Baseball history, that was showcased in Cooperstown in 2014.
