TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

In Roger Dorn's Minnesota Twins owner suite, a number 4 Lou Collins jersey hangs in a case, a reference to Timothy Busfield's character in Little Big League (1994).

Roger Dorn (Bernsen), Pedro Cerrano (Haysbert), Duke Temple (Yeager) and Harry Doyle (Uecker) are the only characters to appear in all three films in the Major League series.

The "South Carolina Buzz" were actually the Salt Lake Buzz - which was the Pacific Coast League farm team of the Minnesota Twins. Formerly the Portland Beavers, the franchise moved to Utah in 1994 and had 7 straight winning seasons. In 2001, the team became part of the Anaheim Angels organization under the name Salt Lake Stingers. Both team were named in honor of the Salt Lake Bees, who originally played in SLC on and off from 1915 to 1970. Since 2006, the team is once again called the Salt Lake Bees.

Shot in early October in Charleston, South Carolina, 1997, during an unseasonably cool fall. All of the night scenes were made to look as though the games were being played during hot mid-summer nights, when in actuality, temperatures dipped into the 30's.

Gus Cantrell (Scott Bakula) asks Rube Baker (Eric Bruskotter), "Weren't you in the San Diego Padres' organization?" In "The Fan (1996)," Bruskotter plays the Padres' catcher.

"Gus Cantrell: God... if You can hear me, *please*... send me *one* real baseball player. That's all I ask. And if you can't grant me that then... well... you might as well just strike me dead right here and now. [he gets hit with the baseball]"

"Gus Cantrell: Pops, I got something for you. [hands Pops a package] Frank 'Pops' Morgan: [opens package] This is a first baseman's glove. Gus Cantrell: That's funny, that's what the guy in the sporting goods store said it was. Frank 'Pops' Morgan: I'm not a first baseman. I'm an outfielder. I been an outfielder my whole life. Gus Cantrell: Look, Pops, I think it might be better for the team... Frank 'Pops' Morgan: Wait. Hold on, now. I've been around a long time. Don't give me the best for the team speech. Give it to me straight. Gus Cantrell: You're too old, you're too fat, you're too slow. Straight enough? Frank 'Pops' Morgan: Yeah, yeah, that'll do it. Gus Cantrell: But I like your bat and I need a leader on the field and I think you're my man. What do you say? You wanna give first base a try? Frank 'Pops' Morgan: Well, you know, whatever's best for the team."
