A film worthy of taking your children to. The messages imparted of friendship and perseverance and honesty and love are messages that we need to see more of in our Theatres. The only negative is the boy running away from home and the parents never closing the circle by reminding their son of the dangers of going out on his own.

This movie was so idiotic it was almost scary. I mean, a talking baseball and bat? A kid named Yankee? What freak names their kid Yankee, some kind of obsessive Yankees fan? This also is not a good example for kids. Yankee goes off on his own to a city half-way across the country to return Babe Ruth's bat, alone and unsupervised. They're is a lot of potty humor and things, and Yankee gets bullied around a lot. Yankee also lied to the baseball by saying he would return it to the sandlot, which he never did. The bat is rude and way too talkative, the baseball has great disdain towards the bat...yeah, stuff like that. Plus, they let a 10 year old bat in the stinkin' World Series! That's not realistic at all. Couldn't they focus on a team other than the Yankees? What about the Red Sox? You know, the curse of the Bambino and all that? Overall, this movie STUNK. DO-NOT-WATCH-IT!!!!!!!!!

My five-year-old LOVES this film--the talking baseball cracks him up! My two-year-old enjoyed it too.

My 5 year old didn't get the more subtle implications, we had to discuss how he shouldn't have run away, but that he kept trying even though he wasn't a great player. Really a pretty clean cut movie with animation of a baseball and bat. He understood the little bit of violence was sort of slapstick like.

I wouldn't highly recommend this movie, but if you're a baseball fan then maybe it'll appeal to you.

bad movie but not that bad its just like a only see it 1 time type of movie.its about A boy. who finds a talking base ball.then Babes bat is taking.So he tries to find the bat.at the end the fat guy goes to jail. and he wins the game.and many years later babe dies [not in the movie but in real life he did]
