What's left behind the scenes
- In an interview with the weekly sports magazine Sports Illustrated, Charlie Sheen admitted that he had been taking steroids while preparing for the filming. The actor stated that this allowed him to increase the ball's speed to 136 km/h when throwing.
- Various tricks were used to demonstrate the athletic abilities of the actors. For example, the pitcher's mound from which Charlie Sheen threw was moved closer to home base, and the camera was positioned so that this was not visible to the audience. Wesley Snipes' running was shown in slow motion.
- Director David S. Ward is a genuine fan of the Cleveland Indians baseball team. He was motivated to make the film by the thought that this was the only way he could see his favorite team win at least once.
- Most of the filming took place in the summer of 1988, and that summer in the state of Milwaukee was one of the hottest in meteorological history. This is noticeable in the final playoff game, when almost all the players are wearing long-sleeved uniforms (the action takes place in cool autumn weather), while the spectators in the stands are wearing t-shirts and shorts.
- In the original ending of the film, Margaret Whitton's character (1950-2016) confesses before the final game that she only pretends to be a shrew to motivate the players. Audiences at preview screenings preferred to see her as a genuine shrew, so the ending was reshot to show her upset that the "Cleveland Indians" won. The original ending can be seen on the DVD release.
