Factual error: Under the rules of Major League Baseball, a team owner cannot also serve as the team's manager; it constitutes a conflict of interest.
Factual error: In the opening scene Billy says the lead runner is entitled to the base if it is occupied by multiple runners. In fact, the trailing runner has this right and those ahead of him on the same bag would be declared out.
Other mistake: When they do the SPECIAL play, and the pitcher throws the ball to the first baseman, and the first baseman looks for the ball along with the guard and 2 to 3 players. The ball is really at 2nd base, a trick play, but there is NO base coach.
George O'Farrell: Hey 'Blackout, ' I didn't get you for your curve ball. I don't like your curve ball. As a matter of fact, I hate your curve. You know why? Because the damn thing don't curve.
Trivia: While he plays the manager of the Minnesota Twins, Dennis Farina is a Chicago Cubs fan.
