Major League

Movie is about the Cleveland Indians baseball team that has really struggled over a long period of time and there owner dies and his showgirl wife takes over team. She wants to make the team so bad she can get out of lease with city and move team to Miami. She tries to put together a really bad team to lose. Well they start off really bad and look like they cant get out of there own way. About mid season they learn of what the owner wanted to do and they Start playing really well and get to the playoffs by beating the hated Yankees in a play in game to get to the playoffs. The Characters played really well off each other Bob Uecker does a great job as the announcer which he really does do baseball on radio for the Brewers and you can see he loves doing it. Charlie Sheen is a brash young pitcher who has been in trouble his whole life and has a lighting arm just no control at start till he gets glasses and blows people away his nickname is the wild thing. it is just an entertaining movie with great one liners. they actually shot the movie in Milwaukee at old county stadium instead of at Cleveland stadium. I really recommend this movie to sports fans and non sports fans it is a classic.
