Morris Buttermaker, a
former pro baseball player, was ejected from the game for attacking
an umpire and now works as an exterminator. More interested in
boozing and broads than baseball, Buttermaker is lured back into the

forced the Little League to accept all players, regardless of their
abilities. As the new coach of the Bears, the most losing team in
Little League history, Buttermaker has his work cut out for him.
Initially, he's only in it for the paycheck, but he and his inept
players have a transformative effect on one another that is wholly
unexpected, and completely remarkable.
