But everything changes when the neighborhood gang recruits him to play on the nearby ball field. Join lovable sidekicks Ham, Squints, Yeah-Yeah and other friends for a magical summer of games, wild adventures, first kisses and fearsome confrontations. Laughs come quicker than a fastball as the warm nostalgia of this freewheeling family classic captures the fun, friendship & possibilities of youth. The Sandlot hits a grand slam!
“This is a movie… that allows its kids to be kids, that shows them in the insular world of imagination and dreaming that children create entirely apart from adult domains and values. There was a moment in the film when… I also realized how completely this movie had seduced me with its memories of what really matters when you are 12.” – Roger Ebert
