Mistakes

The pitcher that Stan Ross gets his alleged 3000th hit against in the beginning is wearing a Rawlings Pro Preferred glove. That didn't exist at the time. See more...

Trivia

There are only 500 balls placed on the wall in Stan's, enclosed in a glass case behind the bar. The crew kept on moving the panels depending on the shot needed. See more...

Corrections

When Stan and the pitcher trick the runner on 1st to get him out, this would not be allowed. A pitcher can't step on the rubber and make a pitching movement unless he actually has the ball. [The pitcher never steps on the mound.]

At the end of the movie, they state that Stan was elected to the Hall of Fame on the "next ballot". This could not be true since Major League Baseball players only become eligible to be voted into the HOF after waiting 5 years from the last game as a player. (The only exception ever granted to this was Roberto Clemente, whose time requirement was waived after he was killed in a plane crash). [The Board of Directors of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, Inc. reserves the right to revoke, alter or amend the [rules of election] at any time. The hall of fame could have viewed Stan's case as a special case since he was already in 4 elections, and make an exemption for him. Also Roberto Clemente was not the only exception. Roberto was the only exception that ever got inducted but Thurman Munson was eligible to be voted on in only a year and half's time after his last game.]

When they play against the Astros and Stan hits a home run, you can tell that they have natural grass. But in the Astrodome, where the Astros play, they use synthetic grass. [The "current" Astros depicted in the movie would have played in Minute Maid Park, which has natural turf.]
