    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      During the Little League World Series championship game against La Mesa, real Monterrey player José "Pepe" Maiz and Angel Macias along with La Mesa player Joe McKirahan made cameo appearances as fans watching the game.
    • Goofs
      At the final game, the American flag shown has 50 stars. In 1957 (when the film takes place), Alaska and Hawaii were not yet states. They were granted statehood in 1959, so the flag shown should have had 48 stars.
    • Quotes

      Frankie Stevens: You know, you say that one more time I will punch you in the nose.

      Mac Thompkins: Been a while since I fought a woman.
