But that changes when the leader of the neighborhood gang recruits him to play on the nearby sandlot field. It's the beginning of a magical summer of baseball, wild adventures, first kisses, and fearsome confrontations with the dreaded Beast and its owner (James Earl Jones) who live behind the left field fence. Soon nine boys have become best friends, Scotty is part of a team, and their leader has become a local legend in this hilarious and warmhearted comedy.

- Disappointed
This movie was recommended to me but I was disappointed.Any uplifting message gets lost in a pointless plot.The movie is mostly a bunch of kids using foul and vulgar language.I would not let my children watch it.Why is it so hard to make a decent movie?
