The Sandlot

Other mistake: When Benny signs the autograph for the fake baseball he signs it Babe Ruthe with an 'E' on the end. This can be seen when Smalls put it back in his step dad's trophy room.

Suggested correction: He did though it's apparently supposed to happen like that as one of the boys says "Baby Ruthe?" when he's signing it and a comment is made about how bad it looks. Strange as it seems; this appears to have been done purposefully for the movie thus would not be a mistake if that's what the actor was directed to do.

Continuity mistake: When the fence is about to fall on the dog, it changes camera angles. In each camera angle the fence falls in different directions. Plus when it starts falling, the dog turns around facing the fence, but when it falls on him, he is facing the other way.

Trivia: According to Patrick Renna, every day of filming was between 95 and 100°, except for the day they filmed the swimming pool scene, in which the temperature was only 60°. That is why Squints is shivering when he's about to jump into the deep end.

Question: Benny gave a hat to Smalls to replace the fish hat. What team and what year was the hat?

Answer: It's a blue hat with a yellow/gold capitol "C" for the logo, which doesn't correspond to any major league teams. It could be a minor league or school team hat. Benny refers to it as his "old" hat, so he may have replaced it with the Dodgers hat he's wearing.
