- Movie Goof (continuity error): At the end of the third inning, the announcer says that Billy strikes out the side and now has five strikeouts. Billy strikes out the second batter and third batter in the first inning, and strikes out the first batter (fourth batter in the lineup) at the start of the second inning. During the eighth inning, it's revealed that the sixth batter in the lineup struck out twice previously, which means he struck out back in the second inning. If Billy struck out the side in the third inning, he should have at least seven strikeouts by the end of the third inning, not five.
- Movie Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Chapel mentions on the plane that he'll be pitching tomorrow and the radio broadcast mentions on game day that it is the second to last day of the season. It is highly unlikely, if not impossible, that a pair of Major League teams would end the season on a 2 game series.
- Movie Goof (factual errors): The game takes place in Yankee Stadium, Billy Chapel pitching for the Detroit Tigers. We see the scoreboard and when Billy Chapel gets three outs, they are recorded in the second row: the visiting team usually tracked in the first row, the second row is for the home team.
- Movie Goof (continuity error): When Sam Tuttle comes to bat in the first inning the scoreboard indicates that he has hit 39 homers, but when he bats in the seventh his home run total is 19.
