Pastime

"A story of a major miracle in the minor leagues."

Aug 23 1991 PG 1h 34m
Drama, Sport

A veteran minor league pitcher in 1957 tutors a young phenomenon.

Plot

Roy Dean Bream (Russ who co-starred on Boy Meets World) plays a veteran minor league hurler in 1957 tutoring young phenom fireballer Tyrone Debray (Plummer). This is Bull Durham taken seriously with cameos by Bob Feller, Duke Snider, Ernie Banks, Don Newcombe, Bill Mazeroski and Harmon Killebrew. A solid performance by Russ and Plummer but script wears down at the end. Well worth seeing though.
