“The coach is waiting for his next beer. The pitcher is waiting for her first bra. The team is waiting for a miracle. Consider the possibilities”
Walter Matthau and Tatum O’Neal slug out the acting honours in this movie about an alcoholic coach trying to whip a little-league baseball team into shape.
Coach Morris Buttermaker (Matthau) is a former minor league ball player who now cleans out swimming pools (and not very well, either). Amanda (O’Neal) is the meanest pitcher in the land.
