Can you get to the pros with just a fastball?

Rating: 7/10 (19 February 2004)

Yaaaaawwwwwwnnnnnnn. Another in a long line of 'lowly underdog strives valiantly and comes back to win the big one' bores. Phony tale of a middle aged man who suddenly discovers he has a major league arm after all. I can't believe this watered down heart wrencher was based on truth. Whose truth? Some Hollywood producer? If you want to see an 'underdog' film with a lot more believability and nervous tension watch "Hossiers". Thumbs down.
