Featured review
This show evokes big memories for me as a little kid. I must've been 9 or 10 years old when this show was on weekend mornings. Being a huge baseball fan, i loved seeing the guest stars and of course Johnny Bench and Tom Lasorda every week. In my mind, it seemed as if there were at least 25-30 episodes made of this show. This was kind of a TV version of Bad News Bears in that you had a team of kids that you could follow throughout the year. As far as baseball learning goes, i think the lessons of the show are solid and stand the test of time. Learning fielding skills from Ozzie Smith and throwing from Dave Winfield cannot be beat. Of course, the nostalgia of the times biases me on this show, but i think this was a classic. In fact, i am searching for a way to buy all the seasons or some episodes to show to my kids.....someone help....who would have the rights and the tapes of these shows???????????
