I've never seen the 70's version, but I'm sure it was just as good. The story begins with down and out of luck exterminator named Morris Buttermaker, who use to be an awesome baseball player, these days he is washed up, he can't go a single day without getting drunk. But he soon gets a chance to revive himself. When he is asked to coach a pre-teen baseball team. But the problem is that they are a bunch of misfits, who lack any baseball skills, and seems to have no confidence in winning. Can Morris bring them up to a winning streak, and give them confidence? Billy Bob Thorton was very funny as Morris, he played off the kids very well. The kids were also funny.
