George Knox: You're Roger's mom?
Maggie Nelson: Nope.

George Knox: I see. So Roger, he's got a wild imagination? Always coming up with stories?

David Montagne: You drink coffee?
Roger Bomman: Yeah, of course. All the time.
JP: Yeah, all the time! What do you think we are? Little kids or something? Now give me a cup or I'll scream.

Roger Bomman: Did you see that?

Roger Bomman: They were just sucked down right from the sky.
JP: Who?

JP: You used to be Mel Clark?
Mel Clark: Yeah. I used to be.

Roger Bomman: God... if there is a God... if you're a man or a woman... if you're listening, I'd really, really like a family. My dad says that will only happen if the Angels win the pennant. The baseball team, I mean. So, maybe you can help them win a little. Amen. Oh, a-woman, too.

Ranch Wilder: Bass sets... and sets... and sets again.

George Knox: In baseball we use signals. Make some kind of signal. I can't come over here every couple of seconds.
Roger Bomman: I'll go like that, okay?

George Knox: There's a thing called "talent"! They don't have it.

Family Court Judge: You understand that once this hearing has established Roger's permanent placement status, his welfare will forever forward be determined by this court.
Mr. Bomman: I understand.
Family Court Judge: And you consulted a lawyer?
Mr. Bomman: Look, lady, I get what I'm doing. The kid's not mine anymore. Not proud of it. There isn't anything that could change my mind about it either.

George Knox: Hey, let's keep the profanity down.
Angel players: HUH?
George Knox: I mean it! No swearing.
Ray Mitchell: That eliminates all speech for most of the team.

Ranch Wilder: And Williams and Norton collide, and the catch is blown.
Roger Bomman: Boy, they're bad.

Drunk Fan: Hemmerling for Mitchell? Go back to Cincinnati.

Continuity mistake: In the last game of the movie you can see that Ray Mitchell (Angel Player) hits a home run to tie the game. If you look you can see that the home run ball goes over the fence and out of the stadium but then after they change cameras to Ray and then back to where he hit the home run it shows a man with the ball in his hand as if he caught it.
