And the Indians still don't have a World Series Pennant

Rating: 7/10 (12 February 2020)

30 years ago the Cleveland Indians were in a 41 year title drought. A little less than four years ago they had a chance to break out of that drought when they put their then 68 year title drought up against the Chicago Cubs 108 year title drought. The Chicago Cubs won.
"Major League" is about the woeful Cleveland Indians and an owner who wants to move the team to Miami. If the team draws less than 800,000 fans on the season then she can uproot the team and relocate them to sunny Miami, Florida where she'll have a mansion in Boca Raton. By fielding the worst team possible she expects that no one will show up to the games and she'll get her wish. Spoiler alert: the team doesn't move. Not to worry, Miami got a team anyway in the Florida Marlins who have won two World Series and the Indians are still waiting.
"Major League" is a worst to first movie. It's a "Bad News Bears" MLB style. It's a cool movie although the love triangle with Rene Russo was lame. I don't know why Hollywood does that. Her character had moved on from ex-husband, Jake Taylor (Tom Beringer), because of his philandering ways, yet he was able to charm his way back into her pants... I mean life... even though she was engaged to be married. It was some lame romance for the female viewer which seems really insulting to me.
Putting the romance aside, the baseball was fun. It was a nice blend of different characters with a unique plot. It's not everyday that your own owner wants you to lose.
