    At 27:13 Babe Ruth says, “I don’t know why, but can I have this?” It’s a Hank Aaron card. Babe Ruth held the HOMERUN record in Major League Baseball until 1974 when Hank Aaron passed it. So it was a wink wink to the audience that Babe’s Angel knew the future. Also, another fun fact, it was a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Benny’s team at the end of the movie.

    Smalls’ looong brim cap is for fishing, you’re more likely to need to block morning sun lower in the sky.

    Playing sandlot ball was always more fun than playing organized Little League games. In sandlot ball, it was generally understood that the pitcher would throw something that you can hit. More hits, more plays, more fun. Then you'd go to your Little League games, and the same friends you were having fun with were trying to strike you out. You'd be up there at bat, knowing damn well that your friends on the other team know that you're an easy out. Glad I gave up on sports. They were fun when they were about the fun. When it got serious and all about winning, it stopped being fun.

    21:50 Babe Ruth was a baseball player from the early 1900's, he is the most famous athlete of all time. Even today someone can say "Lionel Messi is the Babe Ruth of soccer/football" or hell there was a time when people said "Michael Jordan is the Babe Ruth of basketball". Especially in american sports there is no one higher than Babe Ruth he's like a mythical legendary sports figure, he was the first ultra celebrity that literally couldn't walk down the street anywhere without huge crowds forming he was Elvis before Elvis, the Beatles before the Beatles that type of celebrity.

The negging, the guiding hand from Benny, and then the eventual acceptance of the friend group. It's the reason why he was able to go to his step dad as a man and face the music about the ball. He had been razed, teased, and then loved and helped by those same people, that he understood things a bit better. It's what family does and what boys and men do. It's called Male Camaraderie.

    I've loved this film since the very first time I saw it. I would elevate it above Stand By Me (1986) as far as the narrative goes, just because The Sandlot (1993) is more uplifting in its tone while Stand My Me is far more somber and introspective. Both are magnificent coming of age stories, but completely different shades of nostalgic emotions.

I went through a similar situation as Smalls' when my parents divorced at an early age. This movie brings me back to the time when I was young and had friends just like these kids.
