Other mistake: The first time Kit is up to bat in the opening, she gets two strikes but holds on the third. Which is technically a ball that should have saved her. Yet gets called on a third strike.

Suggested correction: The 3rd pitch wasn't technically a ball. It was called a strike by the ump, so it was technically a strike. Not to mention it was down the middle and not even a missed call.
Guess the rules differed then for baseball, because technically Kit did a ball NOT a strike. Which I realise the ump or ref could have called either way. But fairly should have been a legal ball. And just because an ump or ref calls something, doesn't make it bank nor fair. They've made calls in games before, that were not what they claim. And her bat barely moved an inch. So, yes, it should have been a ball.
Balls and strikes do not depend on if the batter swings at the ball, it depends on where the baseball crosses home plate. The pitch Kit did not swing at was in what is known as the "strike zone" meaning whether she swung or not, it was technically a strike.
I'm just curious what makes you think it was a ball?

Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (1993)
Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman - S1-E1
Other mistake: When Emily is in crisis labor Dr. Mike sedates her and does a C section delivery. But Emily periodically regains consciousness during and after. Never once reacting to any pain from the cutting, which seems unlikely.

CHiPs (1977)
Other mistake: As corvette guy races to get away from Ponch, the steering wheel breaks away, coming loose in his grip. Yet the car magically veers a sharp left before halting to a stop, instead crashing into the trees straight ahead of him.

Roots (1977)
Part 1 Roots: The Saga of An American Family - S1-E1
Other mistake: Where is the light in Kunte/Toby's slave cabin coming from? There are no candles or lantern, and electricity hadn't been invented yet. Obviously studio lighting.

The Waltons (1972)
Other mistake: Maryellen wears visible eyeliner throughout the show, despite being during the depression. She wouldn't be wearing any makeup.

Suggested correction: Why wouldn't she be wearing makeup during the depression? Especially if it was just a small amount. This isn't a mistake, just your opinion. Women continued to wear makeup during the depression, and not just starlets or the rich and famous. In fact, makeup sales overall hardly took a dip during the depression because women through the US were still buying it.
Despite that women did wear it during the Depression, part of the factor being that the Waltons wouldn't afford such a luxury, considering their very tight pockets. Otherwise, we'd see Olivia preening herself also, before she goes anywhere. But doesn't even wear lipstick. And Maryellen is never 'caught' actually putting on the eye makeup. So it's likely not any opinion.

The Waltons (1972)
Other mistake: When Uncle Cody hears the bad news on the radio about the banks remaining close, Olivia suddenly orders the children to clear the table when their plates are half full. Which wouldn't happen in a Depression with food being a precious commodity.

The Waltons (1972)
The Legend - S1-E11
Other mistake: During close-ups of the kids, Maryellen is the only one of the girls wearing very visible eyeliner and mascara, that weren't apparent in earlier episodes.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000)
Other mistake: When the kid Billy is recounting the murder scene, he states the killer grabbed a cookie from within the cow cookie jar. When Katherine lifts the lid afterwards, we see bloody fingerprints up inside the top, instead of on the lid. Indicating the killer had to have carelessly reached inside the cookie jar with his fingertips, which would have been impossible.
13th May 2022
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000)
Other mistake: When the CSIs arrive to take in the accident scene from the Pharoah's Fury rollercoaster, the victims are covered in associated wounds and blood, from such a derailing accident. Yet no brain matter seen anywhere. When in a prior take, two of the rail cars had crashed face down into parked cars and pavement. While two other victims were thrown from railcars while in midair.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)
Other mistake: When the spider busts the car window and attacks Ron, we hear chirping and wheezing as the beast tries to impale Ron with its fangs. Yet no fangs are visible, nor piercing into Ron, as he hollers at Harry to 'get going'. When he should have instead, been almost rendered unconscious.

Rose Red (2002)
Other mistake: Joyce is always wearing fresh lipstick regardless the time of day or early morning at wake.

22nd Jan 2022

3rd Jan 2022
Prisoner: Cell Block H (1979)

13th Dec 2021
For Richer or Poorer (1997)
Other mistake: Near the end, the wedding bands Brad offers to Caroline for reconciliation are very different from what they wore at the beginning. Which were a full a gold banded, rich carat diamond set.
21st Oct 2021
The Private Eyes (1980)
Other mistake: It is night-time when Dr. Tart (Conway) releases the 2nd dove out the window. Moments later we hear 2 gunshots and a plop sound of a dead bird. Which would be impossible as the shooter could not see a gray bird in the night sky.
