Corrected entry: In the scene where Al Pacino grabs the students phone in his classroom and asks him the score of the Mariners game it is in the bottom of the first inning. According to the 88 minute timeline this puts the time around 10:30am. Major League baseball games usually start at 1pm local time at the earliest.

Correction: Not true, the Seattle Mariners do occasionally have earlier start times to their day games. This is to accommodate the TV/radio broadcasts in Japan, the home of Mariner Superstar, Ichiro Suzuki. Japanese broadcast considerations are a special clause in his contract. Recently, we had a 11:00am first pitch, so it is possible that there was a game in the first inning prior to 1:00pm.
