Bull Durham (1988)

Continuity mistake: Jose is using chicken bones shaped as a cross to try to bring him hits. Bobby asks for one tap to try to end a 0-for-16 streak. The scene at one point is centred on Jose with Bobby's back to the camera. His bat is down in his lap. When the camera switches to focus on Bobby, his bat is on his right shoulder like he is ready for an at-bat. It then switches back to Jose, and the bat is in Bobby's lap again.

Bull Durham (1988)

Continuity mistake: When Nuke is having his dream of playing naked, the first baseman, Jose, is wearing a batting glove on his left hand. He throws left-handed, and he wouldn't be wearing a batting glove on his left hand. Also later in the movie when they are having the conversation about Jimmy/Millie's wedding on the mound, Jose shows up, and his batting glove is now on his right hand, as it should be.

Bull Durham (1988)

Factual error: As Annie is giving an update on how the Bulls had a great June and July, they showed highlights of the Bulls playing a team called the "Mustangs." No team in the Carolina League in 1987 (or 1988 when the movie was released) had that team nickname. She also mentioned "kicking the holy shit out of Greensboro in a three-game set." Greensboro didn't have a team in the Carolina League. They had a team in the South Atlantic League. Teams from different leagues don't play each other.

Bull Durham (1988)

Continuity mistake: After Crash tells Nuke that his shower shoes have fungus on them, he tosses the flip-flop at Nuke. It lands right near his elbow, next to his body. In the next shot, the flip-flop has disappeared.

Bull Durham (1988)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Nuke is pitching a shutout, Crash is giving him a hard time after the first inning about his curveball being flat and his fastball being up. Crash mentions that the fun is now gone and stands up, still wearing his catcher's chest protector. However, in the next shot, the chest protector mysteriously disappears.
