    Storyline

    Edit
    A young boy named Yankee Irving finds himself at an extraordinary crossroads: He has a chance to be a hero - and make a difference against incredible odds - or he can play it safe. With faith in himself instilled by his family, he teams up with a sassy young girl and some off-the-wall sidekicks and embarks on a sometimes perilous, often funny, cross-country quest. In the process, he restores his family's honor, befriends the world's biggest sports superstar, and reveals the hero within. —Anthony Pereyra <hypersonic91@yahoo.com>

      Announcer: And it just goes to show you... You can be the smallest, you can be the weakest, you can be the worst player on the field, but when people tell you you're no good, and say you should give it up, you know what you do? You just keep on swinging.

    Batter up...
    EH was a simple, emotional, sports, fantasy movie about a child in the 1930's and his hookey pookey baseball and Babe Ruth.

    If you like baseball and literally and thought Babe Ruth was a god then you might like this movie. I liked it, but it wasn't the best of movies. The movie lacked a better mission to care about. I just don't care about these hookey pookey baseball games. This child risked his life for a damn game. Movies like these can really be toxic to young viewers.

    This was an ok movie. Children may last a good 45 minutes watching it before they realize the main purpose of the movie is dull.
