    • 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.

    Truth hearts, sometimes.
    I was fortunate to see the film, compliments of studio movie grille, and I was not disappointed.

    I thought it was a classic "feel good" family movie. Yeah, it won't win any awards, but it will win over your heart.

    For some that need "deeper" in a movie for it to be worthy of praise, forget a' bout' it.

    It's simple and to the point, yeah, you know what's coming next, but that's alright, it's why we go the movies with our families!

    Get it, watch it, enjoy it. Yes, just that simple.

    I thought they did a good job of making it all look fifties. Just like the movie, simple times.
