Its a little sappy, but its a lot of fun.


I've only seen the Disney remake. Is there alot of differences between the two?


I believe the original involved the Pittsburgh Pirates, because the Los Angeles/California/Anaheim/Los Angeles of Anaheim* Angels didn't become a franchise until the 60s.

*="Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim"....man that's so damn stupid. LAAA?
