About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like funny, underdog sports stories with colorful characters and a lot of heart; not for you if you want a serious baseball drama or a more family-friendly comedy like Bull Durham.

Pros: big laughs; memorable misfits; strong team chemistry | Cons: predictable story; uneven romance; a little vulgar
