Corrected entry: Benny steals home at the end of the movie. When the team celebrates you can see Benny break away from his team mates and point up to the press box. But a few scenes later they show Benny doing it again in a close up.

Correction: It wasn't a few scenes later, it was two shots later. The first shot in this instance is The Jet giving a thumbs up while the camera is focused on the whole team and The Jet is out to the right. The shot cuts to Smalls in the commentator booth smiling. Then back to The Jet who is still holding the same thumbs up, which is then reciprocated by Smalls.

Corrected entry: When Squints and Yeah-Yeah are staring at Wendy outside of the convenience store, she walks by in slow motion with her hair straight. But in the next shot, when she is walking at normal speed, her hair is perfectly curled.

Correction: Actually, it's curled the whole time, it only appears straight because in the slow motion it's behind her shoulders, but you can still see that some of the ends are curled. During the close up of Squints and Yeah-Yeah she had enough time to flick it in front of her shoulders.

Corrected entry: When Smalls is walking over to the fence to see the dog, you can hear a popping sound. You can hear another one when the kids are looking at the broken baseball when Benny hits it.

Correction: That sound is a sound people can make when popping bubble gum or when their popping their lips together, as seen in Shrek 2. One of the boys could have been doing either one.

Continuity mistake: When the fence is about to fall on the dog, it changes camera angles. In each camera angle the fence falls in different directions. Plus when it starts falling, the dog turns around facing the fence, but when it falls on him, he is facing the other way.
