Other mistake: During the one game playoff against the Yankees, the runner Taylor picks off at first base has the same number as the batter who had just struck out. Also, the number they both wear has been long since retired by the Yankees and therefore no player could ever wear it again. Again, in the first game against the Yankees, the first base coach also has the same number, making it three Yankee players with the number 37.

Plot summary
Directed by: David S. Ward
Starring: Charlie Sheen, Tom Berenger, Rene Russo, Corbin Bernsen, Dennis Haysbert
The Cleveland Indians have been slumping for the past 30 years when their owner dies and his wife, an ex-Las Vegas showgirl, takes over. She wants to drop attendance below 800,000 so she can move the team to Miami, so she signs a bunch of misfit players, including Jake Taylor, a past-his-prime catcher; Ricky Vaughn, a convicted felon with a wild fastball; and Pedro Cerrano, a voodoo power-hitting outfielder. However, these players, when they have "something to bring it all together," may not be as bad as the owner hopes....

Question: How did Willie Mays Hayes end up arriving at camp? Was there simply a mistake on the invite list, or did Hayes end up knowingly crashing camp on his own?
Answer: He just shows up, uninvited. When he arrives, they can't find his name on the list; he's later (comedically) removed from camp in the middle of the night when security carries him out on his bed (while commenting, "This is the guy who wasn't invited to camp"). So, he's relying on his speed and charm to get him a spot on the team... which, of course, ultimately works.
