I loved the movie, but you have to keep in perspective that it was made in 1948 when watching it. I've had the bat William Bendix took home from the set since the early 80's and you can see a copy of the VHS at the end.

Please check out my books on baseball history. They include the bio of star second baseman Dots Miller. A book featuring 20 Moonlight Graham players who got into just one game. Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.
