Trivialidades:

Just before Rick Vaughn (Charlie Sheen) gives up a home run to Heywood for the second time, Harry Doyle (Bob Uecker) goes over how the other runners got on base. One of the players he mentions is Bill Leff, who actually is the actor who plays Bobby James in the movie.

Errores:

Errores Reales: After Taylor grounds out in the 7th for 2 outs Dorn singles and Cerano homers. Taylor comes up in the ninth with 2 out and a man on. That implies 9 at bats since he grounded out. There are only 8 at bats between the same spot in the batting order. 7th inning single, homer and 3rd out of inning. 8th inning 3 outs and 9th inning 2 outs and a single. Either there should have been only one out or Dorn up with two outs.

Citas:

[first lines]
Rachel Phelps: Good morning, gentlemen, and welcome to another season of Indians baseball.

The Indians win it! The Indians win it! Oh my God the Indians win it!

I grew up in Strongsville Ohio and suffered through many bad Indians teams in the 70's and 80's. At the beginning of the movie it was great seeing the pan view of downtown Cleveland. Oh yes, the movie.......THE INDIANS WIN IT! sums it up perfectly. A million thanks to Tom Berenger, Wesley Snipes, Charlie Sheen and the rest of a great cast for making such a funny and heart-warming movie. Thanks to you too, Euk, for giving that line its heart! Give Cleveland a decent sports franchise and they will come for miles to support them. Sold a few home games out at the Jake as you will recall..........a few tough times have hit the Tribe lately but they're coming back....With Mike Hargrove back that's a step in the right direction. Definitely watch this movie if you want to relax in the comfort and safety of a hilarious and nostalgic movie. GO TRIBE!!!!
