Major League (1989)

Other mistake: Roger says to Jake that he's going to be a free agent next year, which he's excited about and why he doesn't want to risk injury, but then when he learns of the owner's plan and that he'll be given his release next year, which is the same as free agency, he's upset. Plus you can't be given your release when your contract ends, which it must be if he thought he was going to be a free agent.

Suggested correction: Roger says he'll be a free agent after the next season, not the current season. Depending on the terms of his contract, he could be optioned to the minors or designated for assignment, which could reduce his value on the market when he does become a free agent. This plot point is actually rendered moot a bit in the sequel when he retires, but does come into play as he can activate himself as he's still under contract with the Indians.

Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen - S11-E16

Deliberate mistake: BJ mentions to Charles that if they don't sign the armistice it will be the second time in 2 years and then he will miss his daughter Erin's second birthday. This is BJs 7th season and when he arrived at the beginning of season 4, Erin was already born, making it absurd that seven years later she could still be one year old. Because the real war lasted 3 years and the show 11, there are obviously some errors like this that can't be avoided but this was blatantly egregious.
