Title: Worst baseball movie ever??
Review: The baseball scenes alone make this one of the worst hack jobs I've ever seen. At the end of the movie our hero belts home run #62 to break the all-time record, and they don't even show the ball go over the fence!!! What, did they forget to take the lens cap off for that shot or something?? Not to mention the crowd of about 100 extras (not very convincingly positioned to resemble a sellout crowd), looked and sounded about as axcited as if he had just drawn an intentional walk. Not one millisecond of the game scenes in this movie come close to the real game of baseball. My favorite is Al Hraboski, who I remember well as "Tha Mad Hungarian", hamming it up as himself - throwing a complete game. Hello, a complete game? Everyone knows the guy was a reliever!! This movie is a disgrace and an insult to even casual baseball fans...
