Product Description:
It's the early 1960s and fifth-grader Scotty Smalls (Tom Guiry) has just moved into town with his folks (Karen Allen and Denis Leary). Kids call him a dork?he can't even throw a baseball! But that changes when the leader of the neighborhood gang recruits him to play on the nearby sandlot field. It's the beginning of a magical summer of baseball, wild adventures, first kisses, and fearsome confrontations with the dreaded Beast and its owner (James Earl Jones) who live behind the left field fence. Soon nine boys have become best friends, Scotty is part of a team, and their leader has become a local legend in this hilarious and warmhearted comedy.

When egghead Scotty Smalls moves to town just before the summer vacation of 1962, his first priority is to make friends. He heads to the nearby sandlot only to humiliate himself before the local kids, but star player Benny 'The Jet' Rodriguez befriends the awkward boy, teaches him the basics of baseball, and welcomes him to the team. It's a summer filled with camaraderie and fun until Smalls hits his first home run. Problem is, Smalls's home run sends his stepfather's 'Babe Ruth' autographed baseball into a neighboring yard that's patrolled by a snarling, slobbering monster called 'The Beast.' Creativity reigns and hilarity ensues when the boys risk everything to retrieve the ball. A final heroic encounter with 'The Beast' and his owner yields some very surprising results. Action, humor, and friendship permeate this 101-minute film appropriate for ages 5 and older. Rated PG due to name-calling and some pubescent behavior. --Tami Horiuchi

Rating: - A Home Run!!
The Sandlot was definitely the best movie of 1993. Hard to believe that was fifteeen years ago, I remember seeing this one in the theatre and enjoying every second of this heartfelt, inspiring film. The cast is hoot and Denis Leary is actually sweet in this! I recommend this childhood favorite to everyone, enjoy!

Rating: - You're killing me, Smalls
It is the summer of 1962, and Scotty Smalls (Tom Guiry), his mother (Karen Allen), and his stepfather, Bill (Denis Leary) have moved to a new neighborhood. Scotty is kind of an egghead and has a hard time making friends. His mother tells him to get out and make friends, get in trouble even. Bill, his stepfather, could teach him how to play baseball, but he is too busy. Luckily, Benny Rodriguez (Mike Vitar) asks him to play with their sandlot baseball team. Scotty has a lot to learn about baseball, and the other kids don't want to let him play:
Ham Porter: Benny, why'd you bring that kid?
Benny: Because he makes nine of us.
Yeah Yeah: Yeah yeah, so does my sister, but I didn't bring her along!
They don't keep score or anything, the game just goes on and on, the perfect game--unless someone hits the ball over the junkyard fence where 'The Beast,' dwells. One day Benny hits the ball so hard that the cover tears off. It seems like a sign that something great is going to happen, but they are fresh out of baseballs. Scotty gets the ball that his stepfather keeps in his study, but he is unaware of its value, as it is signed by baseball legend Babe Ruth. He hits his first homerun over the fence, but his victory is shortlived when he realizes that in order to get the ball back before his stepfather misses it, he will have to confront 'The Beast,' the biggest and meanest junkyard dog who has ever lived.
Smalls: I was gonna put the ball back.
