well how come in the last inning of the last game...henry looks at his mom and the whole "yeah, it was me" scenario started. whats the deal with that? i sort missed the first hour...so im sure the movie answered that question earlier. any info would be appreciated.
shareThe whole movie Henry's mom tells him that his dad was an amazing baseball player. At the end he removes the tape in his glove to find his moms name and she says it was her not his father.
sharebecause all growing up the mom told henrey it was his father that was the pitcher,.. then at the game henrey peeps off the tape and the glove says henry's moms name.. the mom was the pitcher.
sharewhat i'm puzzled about is how the cubs magically won the world series after losing their two best pitchers in the last game of the season.

Was it a world series ring, or was it a lesser one, like an NL ring or a division champ ring?
shareIt means his mom is really his dad and he had a sex change and no one knows what happen to his real mom
My mom never saw the irony in calling me a son of a b-tch.

The ending also means that the people who made it know very little about baseball. The 12-year-old Cubs pitcher throws his final pitch directly underhand. In the major leagues, isn't an underhand pitch illegal?
Yes, that question was even posed to film critic Roger Ebert in his Movie Answer Man column. However, it was just supposed to be funny to see that big bully batter (nice alliteration there) strike out on that sort of a pitch after teasing Henry earlier in the film. I wish Henry had decided to go over earlier in the film and beat the crap out of Potato, because it would've looked hilarious.
shareWell, since you missed the first hour, of course you don't get it. That's what happens when you miss the beginning of a film. But to save you time, it has to do with the fact that the glove was his mother's and she was the baseball player in the family, not his absent father, as he thought before.
